Just a note to say
That I killed another man today
Another notch on my gun
And here I kneel and pray
I don’t need forgiveness
I just want this war to end
So I can get back home
To you again

When things are looking black
When I’ve gone out too far
And when there’s no way back to where you are

I’ll meet you at the North Star, ooh, ooh, ooh
Wow, oh, oh-wow, ooh, ooh, ooh
I’ll meet you at the North Star ooh, ooh, ooh
Don’t be late

Still surrounded, snow and hail
No supplies or Christmas mail
Skies are real low
On this holy day
In the silent nights we’ll hold out
Long as it takes
Some will live and some will die
When the next dawn breaks

When things are looking black
When I’ve gone out too far
And when there’s no way back to where you are

I’ll meet you at the North Star, ooh, ooh, ooh
Wow, oh, oh-wow, ooh, ooh, ooh
I’ll meet you at the North Star ooh, ooh, ooh
Don’t be late

It wasn’t always obvious
It wasn’t always clear
But from things I’ve seen today
Now I know why we’re here
Now I know why we’re here

Close at hand I heard a scream
I turn around like in a dream
I know that sound
There’s another good man down
And if I leave before you
I will see you by and by
On any starry night
Look to the sky

When things are looking black
When I’ve gone out too far
And when there’s no way back to where you are

I’ll meet you at the North Star, ooh, ooh, ooh
Wow, oh, oh-wow, ooh, ooh, ooh
I’ll meet you at the North Star ooh, ooh, ooh
Don’t be late

I’ll meet you at the North Star, ooh, ooh, ooh
Wow, oh, oh-wow, ooh, ooh, ooh
I’ll meet you at the North Star ooh, ooh, ooh
Don’t be late

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Ooh, ooh, ooh
