Northern Plains
[Verse 1]
A stupid me, I took a morning picture
To send to you ten thousand miles away
The yolky sun rising on the snowfield
And I swore I wouldn't think of you today
[Verse 2]
The frozen line takes me across the border
A hundred years of horses lead the way
Why do stubborn leaves turn forever colder?
There's nothing left to cling to anyway
[Chorus]
I know you'll break my heart again
Somewhere on the northern plains
Tired lovers left alone to lie
Far beyond the golden grate
An emptiness I can't explain
Our hearts are always broken in the sky
As the northern plains go by
[Verse 3]
Holding on to ghosts gets you nowhere
You'll burn, forgetting quietly each day
I've never seen so far without an ocean
And I've never longed for something more to say
[Chorus]
I know you'll break my heart again
Somewhere on the northern plains
Tired lovers left alone to lie
Far beyond the golden grate
An emptiness I can't explain
Our hearts are always broken in the sky
As the northern plains go by
[Bridge]
I don't know where the moments go
Or if love can be replaced
And I don't know why the morning snow
Reminds me of your face
[Chorus]
But I know you'll break my heart again
Somewhere on the northern plains
Tired lovers left alone to lie
Far beyond the golden grate
An emptiness I can't explain
Our hearts are always broken in the sky
As the northern plains go by
As the northern plains go by
As the northern plains go by
