Northern Lad         
             


Had a Northern lad 
well not exactly had 
he moved like the sunset 
god who painted that- 
first he loved my accent 
how his knees could bend 
I thought we'd be ok 
me and my molasses 

but I feel something is wrong 
but I feel this cake just isn't done 
Don't say that you Don't 

and if you could see me now 
said if you could see me now 
girls you've got to know 
when it's time to turn the page 
when you're only wet because of the rain 
because of the rain 

he don't show much these days 
it gets so fucking cold 
I loved his secret places 
but I can't go anymore 
'you change like sugar cane' 
says my northern lad 
I guess you go too far 
when pianos try to be guitars 

I feel the west in you 
and I feel it falling apart too 
Don't say that you Don't 

and if you could see me now 
said if you could see me now 
girls you've got to know 
when it's time to turn the page 
when you're only wet because of the rain 
because of the rain
