Fellow in the North

I was away when you came to me that day On the first of the final month Left in my place was the memory of my face From a time far more innocent and young Ten years ago, when I made the woods my home I was sick of the life I'd led I'm here on my own, but I never feel alone In the silence, all is said Ho, ooh, oh-oh-oh Ho, ooh, oh-oh-oh Far from the shame of the sedentary game I began to find truth in my task I'll never blame, for I'll never be the same In the wild, all lessons last Deep in the trees, where the beggar finds his peace In the arms of a knotted elm I could reclaim what I knew of my old name And return to the head of the helm I was humbled by the stars You were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars You were hollow from the start, eh I left with nothing Life for the bluffing Fled to the forest Northward bound I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start I was humbled by the stars And you were hollow from the start Here in the cold, I will live the life I chose As the Fellow in the North
