[Verse 1] I drew a line across the kitchen tile Called it east, then changed my mind The needle tapped against the glass Each little turn said, “This way—fast” [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Pick one road and let it run” But every sign points to the sun [Chorus] North, north, every way is north Spin me round till the needle comes apart North, north, pull me off my course Every way is north inside my heart North, north, I can’t tell them apart Every way is north till the needle breaks [Verse 2] I marked the map in blue and red Then watched the borders rearrange Your finger held one corner down The rest of it kept turning round [Pre-Chorus] You said, “Pick one road and let it run” But every sign points to the sun [Chorus] North, north, every way is north Spin me round till the needle comes apart North, north, pull me off my course Every way is north inside my heart North, north, I can’t tell them apart Every way is north till the needle breaks [Bridge] If I stand still, will the world decide? If I let go, will the turn unwind? One true point in a spinning sky— I reach for you, then change my mind [Final Chorus] North, north, every way is north Spin me round till the needle comes apart North, north, pull me off my course Every way is north inside my heart North, north, I can’t tell them apart Every way is north till the needle breaks [Outro] Every way is north Every way is north
