Three Rum and Cokes, and a couple beers in
Some lucky drunk stood up, heavy with where he'd been
And he held onto someone, and he sung out, compelled
"You're why I was right to trust myself," he said
"Keep me up, keep me out late
Keep me close, I need your faith
Keep right where you are 'cause I've followed this far
Like I'm sure that you're the northern star
Oh, I'm sure that you're the northern star"
Oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh, woah
Three hours in to a three-minute call
Some gambler wondered if she'd just won it all
And she laughed when he asked if his head seemed alright, singing
"I've seen the bright sides my whole lovely life," she said
"Talk me up and talk me down
Talk too long, I'll stick around
Talk me into following you somewhere far
Like I'm sure that you're the northern star
Oh, I'm sure that you're the northern star"
Oh-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, woah-oh-oh
Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da
Oh, woah-oh, oh-oh
Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh
Three weeks away from a year since the score
And the reckless thieves reckon they could get even more
They ain't casing out weddings, nah, those are too big a sign
They're just looking at dresses and rings that she likes, they said
"Keep me up, keep me out late
Keep me close, I need your faith
Keep right where you are 'cause I've followed this far
Like I'm sure that you're the northern star
Oh, I'm sure that you're the northern star
I'm sure
And I'm sure that you're the northern star"
Oh, woah-oh-oh-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
