Heading North

Well I took right off 

Forgot to flip the light off 

Left the things I couldn’t hold on to 

And I might have taken the night off 

so I can drive and drive to you 

Filled my car with gasoline 

Emptied my head of everything that wasn’t true 

Road signs and exit ramps 

It’s been some time since I’ve given a damn 

Well now I do 


Well I’ve never seen your kind 

so if you don’t mind 

I’ll spend all of my time with you 


I’ve been heading up North back and forth for some time 

Lately I’ve been finding that I’m not fine without you 

I’ve been walking a course and all the forks it hides 

I ain’t been tempted to stray there ain’t no way I’m about to 

Ain’t no way that I’m about to 


My thoughts flush me out 

I’m flooded now like the Mississippi kissing those fields 

I thought I would be covering ground 

But I’m losing now like a train missing its wheels 

Oh traveling at this rate I’ll disintegrate 

I’m just a grave for rusted fear 


I’ve never seen your kind so if you don’t mind 

then I’ll make this dream real 

Well yes I will and that’s why 


I’ve been Heading up North back and forth for some time 

Lately I’ve been finding that I’m not fine without you 

I’ve been walking a course and all the forks it hides 

I ain’t been tempted to stray there ain’t no way I’m about to 

Ain’t no way 


Filled my car with gasoline 

Emptied my head of everything that wasn’t true 


Well I’ve never seen your kind so if you don’t mind 

I’ll spend all of my time with you 


Heading up North back and forth for some time 

Lately I’ve been finding that I’m not fine without you 

I’ve been walking a course and all the forks it hides 

I ain’t been tempted to stray there ain’t no way I’m about to 

Ain’t no way 


Heading up North back and forth for some time 

Lately I’ve been finding that I’m not fine without you 

Yeah I been heading up North back and forth for some time 

Lately I’ve been finding that I’m not fine without you
