Going North

Lyrics by Missy Higgins

I wanna dance the tango with chance

And I wanna ride on the wire

'Cause nothing gets done with dust in your gun

And nobody respects a liar

So, goodbye for a while

I'm off to explore every boundary and every door

Yeah, I'm going north

And I wanna know where children would go

If they never learned to be cool

'Cause nothing's achieved when pushed up a sleeve

So nobody thinks you're a fool

So, goodbye for a while

I'm out to learn more about who I really was before

Yeah, I'm going north

Up where the hunted hide with ease

Under the arms of eyeless trees

Up where the answers fall like leaves

Or when your love is all I need

Yeah, I'm going north

I'm going north

Yeah, I'm going north, yeah
