North Dakota Lyrics

Lyric discussion by anghrain 

Cover art for North Dakota lyrics by Lyle Lovett

This is a hauntingly beautiful song, and like most songs, has deeply personal meanings to everyone who loves it. My take-away on it is of a sweet memory of love lost, its fleeting qualities and impermanence, and the back-to-earth reality, and futility, of trying to get regain some of those feelings.
