Polaris Lyrics

North Mississippi Allstars Polaris

Close your eyes, make the world disappear
Dance with me, we’re the only ones here
Can’t believe it’s time to leave, I don’t want to be alone
Never say you should have known

Good-time girl, fair-weather friend
You rode in on a whirlwind
So good to see you again
Good-time girl, fair-weather friend
Fare thee well, my friend

The sun is burning the world is turning
Stars falling from the sky
Sometimes in the summer I wonder why
Flowers and trees turn brown and grow green
Somethings I’ll never know
I know that somethings are not what they seem

Good-time girl, fair-weather friend
You been ridin' a whirlwind
So good to see you again
Good-time girl, fair-weather friend
Fair-weather friend

Turn me on all night long
Girl, you are so intense
I look in your eyes I can read your mind
But you still don’t make any sense

(alternate lyrics:
throw your pearls to the swine
they get convered in it
don't be surprised if your well runs dry
when you thought it would never quit)

Good-time girls, fair-weather friends
You rode out on a whirlwind
Where did you go, where have you been?
Good-time girls, fair-weather friends

You are, you are
You are a fair-weathered friend
So good to see you again
Fare thee well, my friend
