Northern Star
Guiding Light of Love: Embracing Sacrifice and Strength
Lyrics
Love burning brighter than the sun
Intense love, compared to the brightness of the sun
There is truly nothing I wouldn't have done
Expresses readiness for extreme actions or sacrifices for the person being addressed
I'd sacrifice a whole generation to keep you safe, to give you protection
Willingness to sacrifice a lot, even a whole generation, to ensure the safety and protection of the loved one
No price too big, I'm willing to pay
Emphasizes the commitment to pay any cost for the loved one
You're my northern star, you're safe here with me
Declares the person addressed as the guiding light and a source of safety
Light years from home, no one hears you calling
Feeling isolated or distant from home with no one around to respond to calls for help
And you try to be strong when you're on your own
Encouragement to be resilient when alone and facing challenges
Cold to the bone, through the night you're crawling
Describes a desperate and difficult situation of feeling extremely cold and vulnerable
You are not alone, you are not alone
Assurance that despite the challenges, the person is not alone in their struggles
Jamais un au revoir tu t'en apercevra
French phrase: "Never a goodbye, you'll realize it" - implying an eternal connection without farewells
Cuz in my heart you'll always have a part
Assures that the person addressed will always hold a place in the singer's heart
You are my northern star
Reaffirmation that the addressed person is the singer's guiding light and source of direction
Constant longing, my whole world revolves around you
Expresses a strong yearning and dependence on the addressed person
I'm just a shell of my former self
Feeling diminished or incomplete without the presence of the loved one
Every breath like drowning, so frustrated, what can I do?
Every moment feels suffocating and frustrating without a way to help
But there is nothing I can do to help, so I have faith in you
Despite inability to assist, the singer holds onto faith in the addressed person's capabilities
Light years from home, no one hears you calling
Reiteration of feeling isolated and unheard, far from any aid or support
And you try to be strong when you're on your own
Encouragement to exhibit strength while facing challenges alone
Cold to the bone, through the night you're crawling
Describes a physically and emotionally taxing struggle through the night
You are not alone, you are not alone
Reassurance that despite the struggle, the person is not alone
Jamais un au revoir tu t'en apercevra
Repetition of the French phrase, emphasizing the eternal connection and lack of goodbyes
Cuz in my heart you'll always have a part
Confirms the eternal place the addressed person holds in the singer's heart
You are my northern star
Reaffirmation that the person addressed is the singer's guiding light
I see you everywhere
Sensation of constantly perceiving the presence of the loved one everywhere
Close my eyes and await the next morning
Anticipation for a new day, hoping for relief from the darkness of longing
But in the darkness you'll find a way
Belief that even in dark times, the addressed person will find a solution
You got the power, you got that from me
Acknowledgement of the addressed person's strength inherited from the singer
Just have faith in your prowess, my precious lioness
Encouragement to believe in one's abilities, especially for the addressed person
I know you'll make it home, stay strong
Confidence in the addressed person's ability to overcome challenges and return home
Jamais un au revoir tu t'en apercevra
Reiteration of the eternal connection and absence of farewells
Cuz in my heart you'll always have a part
Confirmation of the perpetual place in the singer's heart for the addressed person
You are my northern star
Reassertion of the addressed person as the singer's guiding light
Jamais un au revoir, I know just where you are
Repetition of the French phrase, indicating the certainty of the addressed person's location
Cuz in my heart you'll always have a part
Confirmation of the eternal place held by the addressed person in the singer's heart
You are my northern star
Reaffirmation that the addressed person is the singer's guiding light
