Didn't know the difference between What I needed and what I was wanting And the way you looked at me Was a little haunting I can still see you with your whiskey and your ginger Back of the bar, drunk in early September But I'm missing you now I'm still stuck here in this southern town So tell me Tell me, how's that northern air And do you think of me when you're all alone? Won't you bring yourself on home? I sang you songs, I wrote about you, didn't even know it Or maybe you did and you were too afraid to show it Tonight I wonder if you're by yourself But I can't imagine you with anyone else So tell me Tell me, how's that northern air And do you think of me when you're all alone? I could drive all night to be there 'Cause I don't think that I could stand One more night on my own Won't you bring yourself on home? There's a red wine stain on my white dress That I bought to impress you That night that I confessed my truth Didn't know it would upset you I haven't seen you in so long But after all this time, these feelings, they're not gone So tell me Tell me, how's that northern air And do you think of me when you're all alone? I could drive all night to be there 'Cause I don't think that I could stand One more night on my own Won't you bring yourself on home? Won't you bring yourself on home? Won't you bring yourself on home? Won't you bring yourself on home? There's a red wine stain on my white dress That I bought to impress you
