Our main character, Lord Huron, is introduced to us here. This song makes it clear what kind of man he is. He’s a well-traveled romantic who has been searching far and wide for a girl who was fleetingly a part of his life but one who has constantly been on his mind.
[Intro]
Hey-eh eh, hey, eh eh
[Verse 1]
I've been through the desert and I've been 'cross the sea
I've been walking through the mountains, I've wandered through the trees for her
I have been trying to find her, want to give what I got
She lit a fire, and now she's in my every thought
[Refrain 1]
Hey-eh, eh, eh eh
Hey-eh eh, hey, eh eh
Hey-eh, eh, eh eh
Hey-eh eh, hey, eh eh
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Where could that girl have gone?
Where? I've wandered far
Where could that girl have gone?
She left no trail, but I cannot fail; I will find her
[Chorus]
(Hey-eh, eh, eh eh)
She lit a fire, and now she's in my every thought
(Hey-eh, eh, eh eh)
She lit a fire, and now she's in my every thought
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Where could that girl have gone?
Where? I've wandered far
Where could that girl have gone?
She left no trace, but I know her face; I will find her
[Refrain 2]
Hey-eh, eh, eh eh
Hey-eh, eh, eh eh
[Bridge]
When last I saw her, she was dancing all alone
Perhaps my chance was then; I'll never know
I'll search the world until there's no place left to go
And if she leaves it, I will follow, I will follow
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
(Hey-eh, eh, eh eh)
She lit a fire, and now she's in my every thought
(Hey-eh, eh, eh eh)
She lit a fire, and now she's in my every thought
[Verse 1]
I've been through the desert and I've been 'cross the sea
I've been walking through the mountains, I've wandered through the trees for her
I have been trying to find her, want to give what I got
She lit a fire, and now she's in my every thought
