The date was set, still she couldn't see
Waking up beside him every day for the rest of her life
She walked and walked through the old part of town
In the aftermath of a hurricane, all the lines were down
So hard to get through
Round and round, round it goes
The compa** in her heart
Back and forth
It's so hard to find true north
She turned up his street and she knocked on his door
She couldn't look him in the eye, and her voice began to shake
The victim of her regret, he listened hard
But he knew right off that her mind would never change
He never got over it
Round and round, round it goes
The compa** in her heart
Back and forth
It's so hard to find true north
She looks out on the water at the waves coming in
She thinks about the man who said "I'll do anything for you"
And the one who told her "I would die for you"
Round and round, round it goes
Back and forth
It's so hard, it's so hard, it's so hard to find true north
