It's the great Northern-Southern divide
Will these things ever change?
Platonic heartbreak from afar
He wasn't meant to stay
I sure wouldn't mind
If the world had slowed the spinning
On one of those Christmas Eve nights
Now I'm in the shaded corner
Can't be seen from the light
When the sun sinks down
I'll be next in line
And I'll do a far better job
Of doing things right
I know it's kinda my fault
It's kinda yours too
It's the pull
It's the pull
Cities drifting farther
You're the pull
It's the pull
Who's the pull?
The world's spinning faster
Than ever before
And we plead just to see ya
Before you're gone
When the sun sinks down
I'll be next in line
And I won't blame the pull
And I won't say "you're fine"
Without seeing you fine
I want it to be fine
Yeah, we do love this life
And I'll just blame the pull
For things that aren't quite right
Yeah, we do love this life
And I'll just blame the pull
For things that aren't quite right
When the sun sinks down
I'll be next in line
