Stranger Sounds - Head North

Close your eyes

Have no fear

The night is wide

But she’ll find you here

It curls like coffee cup smoke

On that off-white dress you used to know so well

That dizzy smile in clouded swirl

That soft-skinned while when I was hers

Those lips that finally formed

In the haze of light from your bedroom door

Once more said, «Don't fear the coming wave

Nothing breaks with it

I am in the rain

I am the Empire State

And I won’t change a bit»

I miss all of you now

My home as much as stranger sounds whispered

It pulls like nothing I’ve known

Between a place to live and space to grow

My home all alone

All alone

All alone

All alone

All alone

I’m gonna be the one who sees you

I’m gonna be the one who knows

I’m gonna be the one who fears you

I’m gonna be the one you chose
