I’ll go from here the best I’m able

I remember when you’d say

In a tongue of hymn and fable

Now you know they’ll be okay

And I know we’ll be okay

​

Now should we dream, Northern Girl,

Of pearl and clay?

Sweet granite days and hallowed seas?

​

From the porch and out the side yard

Violins of old Julys

The water’s down and dawn is undone

We can hear the planets sigh

We can hear the call tonight

​

And we will dream, Northern Girl,

of pearl and clay

Sweet granite days and hallowed seas

​

Dream, Northern Girl

Stay with me

Sweet granite days and hallowed seas
