"Northern Sky" - Nick Drake (1970) Scene from the close of Serendipity movie (2001) with John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale, with a song by Nick Drake, which he probably wrote while living in Hastings, England. Produced by John Cale of Velvet Underground. Song never became a hit while Nick was alive. I never felt magic crazy as this I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea I never held emotion in the palm of my hand Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree But now you're here Brighten my northern sky. I've been a long time that I'm waiting Been a long that I'm blown I've been a long time that I've wandered Through the people I have known Oh, if you would and you could Straighten my new mind's eye. Would you love me for my money Would you love me for my head Would you love me through the winter Would you love me 'til I'm dead Oh, if you would and you could Come blow your horn on high. I never felt magic crazy as this I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea I never held emotion in the palm of my hand Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree But now you're here Brighten my northern sky. |
