True North
Where do we go when it’s all said and done?
Someday I’ll meet you
somewhere beyond the stars;
It doesn’t matter how many times we look away,
In a hundred lifetimes you are with me
in a place there are no words for;
You poured faith into an empty glass;
What can transcend things like mortality and time?
Nothing, but a gift like that;
Where do we go when it’s all said and done?
Someday I’ll see you
in a world yet to be discovered;
It doesn’t matter how many times
or what pries us apart;
In a hundred ways even if
I have yet to see the reason, you saved me;
What can transcend the direction of True North? Nothing;
We have always been
and always will be together;
Someday we will be gone,
but we will leave behind a night sky
painted with stars.
