[Verse 1]
In the back of your car
We didn't get far that night
But I knew right then and there
As I was laying across your hair
That the rest you can write in books
And we'll build a home on the overlook
And we came back a circle
And let the black night point us north

[Chorus]
Only upright will I be
Only upright will I see
Only upright will I be
Only upright

[Verse 2]
In the bells of another town
With a fresh coat on the ground
Where we found a little cove to hide in
Into the back of the car, again confiding
And the snow grew up its banks
And we'll never falter like the frozen lakes
And we came back a circle
And let the black night point us north
[Chorus]
Only upright will I be
Only upright will I see
Only upright will I be
Only upright

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
Only upright will I be
Only upright will I see
Only upright will I be
Only upright
