You Can Find The North

If you take a man and give him fish
He'll cook you up a tasty dish
But he'll never know
Where the fish did grow

But if you give him hooks and you give him lines
And you take him where the water shines
He'll always be
Some kind of free

Oh, oh, oh... some kind of free

I went to live under city lights
No falling stars lit the night
Just a golden haze
In a concrete maze

Breathing dirt and dodging cars
Waves of people going far
Do you feel the wind
The subway's in

Oh, oh, oh... do you feel the wind

We used to follow other stars
Before we so lit up the dark
Neon signs
Fast food take out lines

Clocking in and clocking out
And still you’re living hand-to-mouth
Oh the colour green
Is a long lost dream

That calls you in the night
Down busy streets you've taken flight
To the far edge of town
Where the darkness still lives
When the moon’s gone down
Oh, oh, oh,...

A sailor came and took my hand
He pointed up to the stars above
There in the sky
They shone so bright

He said if you can find the bear
You can find the north
Now that you have altered course
You will find you way
Back home again

Oh, oh, oh... oh home again
