Lyrics

North Star

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Forty-five light years

From home

From where you are

Where I wanna be

Beside you

Looking for direction

Star to your affection

The space between you and me

I can't wait any longer

For your love

I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait any longer

For it

I can't wait any longer

For your love

The birds still singing for them

As they fly above the firmament

It's not a song of discontent

It's not like that

Up in the sky

Here I am, a space guy

Caught between the love and logic

Out here in the universe

Hey hey

I can't wait any longer

For your love

I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait any longer

For it

I can't wait any longer

For your love

And a day as it ends

And you watch as the sun goes down

Pray that the night

Will go quickly now

Your hope

Your prayer

And the clouds leave the sky alone

There's only one light that can guide you

Guide you

I can't wait any longer

I can't wait any longer

For your love

I can't wait any longer

For your love

I can't wait

I can't wait

I can't wait any longer

For your love

For your love

It's like the silence and shock

Of the lights up there shining

You want it

You got it

You want it
