Break all my bones, turn them to dust
I feel so selfish, but you are a must
Skies bleed out white, stone rivers freeze dry
Your blood is the rain, we leave out on the ice
That'll break my world in two
Thirty-four days, in six days we've stayed
In hilltop side country homes
Meeting abroad, with little to lose
Servin' the needs of two jealous young fools
Who'll tear my world in two
Our ways have been changing, I've been so compliant
Faster and faster, but I wouldn't buy it
Winter is running his course
I turn my heart to the north
Wrapped in dust, in a clearing I freeze
I wind through the pines, with snow at my knees
Tracing old steps over powdery miles
The top of my head, exposed to the sky
You kept me alive, inside an embrace
I'd cross every line to be back in this place
Shut up inside, or buried away
Calgary longs for the ring of your name
To cling to the things that I knew
Our ways have been changing, I've been so compliant
Faster and faster, but I wouldn't buy it
Winter is running his course
I turn my heart to the north
Fates had been braided, but you were defiant
Searchin' for something, but you'll never find it
Winter is running his course
I turn my heart to the north
Winter is running his course
I turn my heart to the north
