True North

We depart on the water, crystal clear
All doubts eclipsed by the view from the pier
Christen our ship with a heartfelt kiss
But if a day
Finds us adrift on an angry sea
(Stay awake perchance still to dream)
Hold fast to the heart of strength unseen
And brace for the high tide
When sail meets storm
Battered by the cold rain, tattered and torn
And we're overboard
The waves may take us
But I won't let you go
I won't let you go
Our ship split apart by relentless waves
Stranded afraid, clutching to the remains
Find my hand, let fingers intertwine
We'll find a way
My darling, trust my steadfast kiss
(I know the shore is right beyond the mist)
A shaft of light in this tempest
Rescues our sightline
When sail meets storm
Battered by the cold rain, tattered and torn
And we're overboard
The waves may take us
But I won't let you go
I won't let you go
We'll chart a course for truest north
What's in our hearts can't be capsized
I know love's not love that alters
When it alteration finds
When sail meets storm
Battered by the cold rain, tattered and torn
And we're overboard
The waves may take us
But I won't let you go
I won't let you go
