lyrics

Of the North (Forrester)
The weathered lines of him and I, oh how he had me going
But now, I’m uncertain since you’ve been my man
I used to vie and always try to make it into something
But now, I know I’m better off if we’re to leave me wondering
I go slow and fine
Our life and times like cedar wine and drying of tobacco
All around and feeding into my sheets and herbal pillows
I’m told my spirit’s tender and its’ animal a deer
She’s gentle towards her children and free of lies or fear
I’d like to think I could reach her
I’d like to think I’m kind
Ah, but I’m not a mother, and I’m certainly no wife
I go slow...
Wake up, it’s getting dark, we should not be around these parts
My soft and whitened hands, they do not bide your command
Look Out! Up in the Sky! Your crystal will not save you this time
These giants of the north, they come and bear the fall of the Lord
