Will Gerdell - You & the Northwest Lyrics

I wanna live in a town
Where I can hear the clock tower keeping me in time
And all we breathe is air, and all we breathe is air
And the sea won't seem so far from sight
But an easy drive towards sunlight
And all we breathe is air, and all we breathe is air

Someday, we'll make it out there
No one doubts we'll make it out there

You and the northwest find me smitten
I've a new found love for the things I've always dreamed of
You and the northwest air breathe life
I've a new found love for being by your side

I never knew a poet could write
Just to write about everything going right
We're all such tortured souls
Always tortured souls
But you asked for a happy song
And it'd only be so wrong
To leave such a great girl without a song to belong to

Someday, we'll make it out there
Oh, no one doubts we'll make it out there

You and the northwest find me smitten
I've a new found love for the things I've always dreamed of
You and the northwest air breathe life
I've a new found love for being by your side
