[Chorus: Karine Polwart]
I never knew magic crazy as this
I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea
I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree
But now you're here
Brighten my northern sky

[Verse 1: Karine Polwart & Kris Drever, Kris Drever]
Been a long time that I'm waiting
Been a long time that I'm blown
I've been a long time that I've wandered
Through the people I have known
Oh, if you would and you could
Straighten my new mind's eye

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Karine Polwart & Kris Drever, Kris Drever, Karine Polwart ]
Would you love me for my money?
Would you love mе for my head?
Would you love me through thе winter? (Would you love me through the winter?)
Would you love me 'til I'm dead?
Oh, if you would and you could
Come blow your horn on high
[Chorus: Karine Polwart & Kris Drever]
I never knew magic crazy as this
I never saw moons knew the meanin' of the sea
I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree
But now you're here
Brighten my northern sky

[Outro: Karine Polwart & Kris Drever, Karine Polwart, Kris Drever]
Brighten my northern sky
Will you love me?
Brighten my northern sky
Will you love me?
Now you're here
Brighten my northern sky
Brighten my northern sky
