Up North

Mirrorball

You lit every dark corner

Made the air feel like it was dancing

Your eyes like an old colored vinyl

Were hiding in grooves a smile

Like a sweet aria

I was searching for something divine

And ended up

Making the mundane into my shrine

And we all know

A little but we're tricked

By the same sense of wanting

Like silence mistaken for knowing

Like a desert's mistaken for sea

Like a tongue has a mother

We belong to each other

We belong to each other

Moonlight is so overrated

Complete darkness is so embracive

And as we traveled north

There were crows and seagulls

Stood on either side

Like angels and demons

And we knew what we wanted to hear

The wind singing like your sweet aria

And the clouds blew at shadows

Tricked by the same sense of wanting

Like silence mistaken for knowing

Like a desert's mistaken for sea

Like a tongue has a mother

We belong to each other

We belong to each other
