North Pole

In the snow, I sleep freezing, constantly coughing and wheezing
Been awake the whole night through, my mind reeling with thoughts of
you
Sitting in the north pole, it is really cold, but i'm still waiting
for you

My blood is cold as ice, if you were here that would suffice
Staring blankly at the wall, waiting patiently for your call
The bread you baked when you left is now a solid rock, a footrest
Tried to keep it warm for you, it didn't last four years, only two
Sitting in the north pole, it is really cold, but i'm still waiting
for you

You said you'd be back in 10, good thing I believe in zen
You'll be back, this I know, even though that was 3 years ago
Sitting in the north pole, feels like I'm getting old, but I'm still
waiting for you

I know that you'll be back soon, so I'll stay awake until you do
Borrowed a book from a friend of mine, I've read it so many times
Sitting in the north pole, it is really cold, but I'm still waiting
for you
Sitting in the north pole, feels like I'm getting old, but I'm still
waiting for you
