September's Birds - Northern Light Lyrics

The night
As clear as a whispered hymn
And still as the day's end
I remembered a northern light

And I remembered you said to me
"It's cold when the wind's blowing
But I'll stand with you rooted now
With all my days growing down"

And time
Turn swift at the wheel and sway
And wind through the roadways
I was driving off through the night

The lights hung beneath the moon
And shined in the rearview
And flew off where my heart was found
With all my days growing down

The shadows wane in the light
When you're driving over the lines
And stars are falling all around
With all my days growing down
