Northern Air
Didn't know the difference between
What I needed and what I was wanting
And the way you looked at me
Was a little haunting.
I can still see you with your whiskey and your ginger,
In the back of the bar, drunk, in early September.
But I'm missing you now.
I'm still stuck here in this southern town.
So tell me, tell me, how's that northern air?
And do you think of me when you're all alone?
Won't you bring yourself on home?
I sang you songs I wrote about you, didn't even know it.
Or maybe you did and you.. too afraid to show it.
Tonight I wonder if you're by yourself.
But I can't imagine you with anyone else.
So tell me, tell me, how's that northern air?
And do you think of me when you're all alone?
Won't you bring yourself on home?
I could drive all night to be there
cuz I don't think that I could stand
One more night on my won.
Won't you bring yourself on home?
There's a red wine stain on my white dress
That I bought to impress you.
That night I confessed my truth
I didn't know it would upset you.
I haven't seen you in so long.
But after all this time, these feelings
They're not gone.
I could drive all night to be there
cuz I don't think that I could stand
One more night on my own.
Won't you bring yourself on home?
Won't you bring yourself on home?
Won't you bring yourself on home?
There's a red wine stain on my white dress
That I bought to impress you.
