Lyrics

I never felt magic crazy as this

I have never experienced a magic as intense as this.

I never saw moons, knew the meaning of the sea

I have never observed moons or understood the significance of the sea.

I never held emotion in the palm of my hand

I have never held emotions so tangible, as if in the palm of my hand.

Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree

I have never felt gentle breezes at the top of a tree.

But now you're here

Now that you are here, you illuminate my northern sky.

Brighten my northern sky


I've been a long time that I'm waiting

I've been waiting for a long time.

Been a long that I'm blown

It has been a long time that I've been blown by circumstances.

I've been a long time that I've wandered

I've been wandering for a long time among the people I have known.

Through the people I have known

Oh, if you would and you could

If you could, please straighten my new mind's eye.

Straighten my new mind's eye


Would you love me for my money?

Would you love me for my wealth?

Would you love me for my head?

Would you love me for my intellect?

Would you love me through the winter?

Would you love me through difficult times, symbolized by winter?

Would you love me 'til I'm dead?

Would you love me until I pass away?

Oh, if you would and you could

Come blow your horn on high

If you could, come and celebrate loudly and joyfully.


I never felt magic crazy as this

Reiteration of the intense, magical feeling mentioned earlier.

I never saw moons, knew the meaning of the sea

I never held emotion in the palm of my hand

Reiteration of the tangible emotions and natural experiences.

Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree

But now you're here

Now that you are here, you brighten my northern sky.

Brighten my northern sky
