Northern Lights

She's tired of thinking 'til the sun comes up

Her body aches when she's awake

It kills her mother when she drinks too much

She can't stay sober for a day

She's giving everything to numb the burns

Addicted to the losing fight

She looks vacant but the wheels still turn

She could be singing this tonight

I want to touch the northern lights

We could leave the world behind

I wanna know what it's like

To walk away from this life

I have to cross entire oceans when I want a moment of her time

She never wants to fall in love again

And every kiss would be a crime

Maybe she suffers for the thrill of it all

But I know she's thinking when she falls

I want to touch the northern lights

We can leave the world behind

I want to know what it's like

To walk away from this life

And maybe one day when I've suffered

Tired and twisted, I'll call her

And we'll drive, into the sunset

Into the sunset

I want to touch the northern lights

We could leave the world behind

I want to know what it's like

To walk away from this life

I want to touch the northern lights

We could leave the world behind

I want to know what it's like

To walk away from this life
