Northern Sun

Another song I wrote during medic's training... a prolific time, that was, seeing as I had zero free time
This song keeps reminding me of the Rise of Endymion by Dan Simmons. I don't know why, it's just a vibe I get.

Lyrics:
Paintbrush clouds move through clear skies
Wind carries hopes and goodbyes
Your lips are a sweet memory
Of three seconds lasting an eternity
A lifetime spent with me

You know
I first met you under the light of a northern sun
The winds carried our songs and hopes
Throughout the lands

Still
In love
With you with your laughter
With your songs
With your smile

I've seen you
Before the storm
You stood proud,
Ready
Facing the falling skies
In dark shades of blue
Waiting for me
To let go of my fears
And reach for you

You know
I still arrive where we first met
Under the light of a northern sun
Trying to gather whatever strength
And journey towards you

Just when I think I've found you
I wake up, the night breeze holds me
I try to pierce the clouds above me
See your face in dark skies full of stars

They're full of stars
Oh, you know

We're just islands
Moving under a northern sun
What forces claim to govern us
Are all subject to pain and love
Do you remember the place we first met
Under the light of a northern sun
The winds carried our story about
Over the seas and throughout the lands
