northern sunrise - katherine priddy lyrics

[verse]
stinking of woodsmoke, rum, and wildflowers
was it the sun or the moonshine? it drove us to dance there for hours
reeling from nettles and ale that you stole from the bar
your voice made me enter, your skin made me stay
we move like the water, two currents merged, meeting halfway
lost my defences somewhere in the back of a car

[chorus]
we don’t fall in love, we rise
and like the dawn burns slow
oh i know this takes time
but i’ll stay here tonight
and lie with you under a soft northern sunrise

[verse]
i know we’re both drifters, not ones to stay still
i’m scared of freewheeling, but i’m so sick of struggling uphill
give me an orbit that holds me whilst letting me spin
the distance is bitter, but the fruit tastes so sweet
the doubts worm away, but my heart has admitted defeat
i’ve come such a long way to be here, so please let me in

[chorus]
we don’t fall in love, we rise
like the dawn burns slow
oh i know this takes time
but i’ll stay here tonight
and go to the water and lie with the doors open wide
as i share all my secrets, oh god knows i tried
to resist you from the moment i kissed you one night near the sea
never dreamt you’d be drowning with me
[outro]
i can hear you’re still sleeping
see the dawn through closed eyes
as i lie with you under a soft northern sunrise
there’s no need to worry
we’re taking this slow
