The Bowerbirds - Northern Lights

 

I don't need from you a waterfall of careless praise
and I don't need a trophy for all the games I've played

but all I want is your eyes
in the morning as we wake
for a short while

and I don't need you to catch my wanderin mind
and I don't expect a southern girl to know the northern lights

and all I want is your eyes
in the morning as we wake
for a short while

and I do need the wind across my pale face
and I do need the fern to unfurl in the spring
and I do need the grass to sway
yes I do need to know my place

but all I want is your eyes
in the morning as we wake
for a short while
