Northern Star - Molly Johnson

Little man, Where'd you go?

What’d you do?

In a flash

Fingerprints, All that’s left

On your way, Key in hand

Go set the world on fire with your big ideas

Say it good and loud for them all to hear

And Lord have mercy on those virgin ears

And don’t you forget this

With every bridge you burn

With every lesson you unlearn

You can always find your way back home

And when it’s all confused

You’re overwhelmed and underused

Set your compass to the northern star

And find your way back home

Little girl, All grown up

So you think, In a whirl

Faded pink, All that’s left

On your way, Swim or sink

Go set the world on fire with your courage and grace

Find your own way to your special place

And lord show some mercy on those who get in your way

And don’t you forget this

Through the crack in the concrete

Through the grit in your eye

Through the dirt on the window

Try to find your light in the sky

In the dead of morning

In the still of night

The place that you come from

Is always in sight
