Up North
I’m standing on a snowy mountain top
in Alaska
When my brother says he misses me
Says it’s been to long since I’ve come from the lower 48
And I’m sad to admit that’s it’s true
But through the rain I spit out
I say I’ll do better
But I never do
“It’s a shame I can’t stay longer”
I say to him
But I know that I don’t have the heart to wander away from my comfort zone
I’m headed up north to Alaska
To find some peace of mind
But I’m left feeling empty
Like I'm leaving what I set out to find
Heading north to Alaska
I’m going north to Alaska
Ive come and gone
But my heart is In Alaska
Saw the northern lights dance in the sky
Brought tears to my eyes
Kayaked through the pacific
Sea otters swam by my side
Saw mountain carry the sky
So tall I felt so small inside
It’s the last frontier
Its the last of the Best of the world
I’m headed up north
I’m going north to Alaska
Ive come and gone
But my heart is In Alaska
