Northern Lights

You lay your head gently on my shoulder We made big plans, they changed as we got older Oh, I know now what I didn't before Sometimes, it's good to let a good thing go But in my head, you're still mine And I go back every night I see your face in summer skies I count the stars inside your eyes Oh, what went wrong and what went right It fades away as years go by We may not have a whole lifetime But at least we had the northern lights It hurts like hell admitting I still miss you Your heart, my hand, somehow, I let it slip through, oh And I know now what I didn't before Sometimes, it's good to let a good thing go But in my head, you're still mine And I go back every night I see your face in summer skies I count the stars inside your eyes Oh, what went wrong and what went right Fades away as years go by We may not have a whole lifetime But at least we had the northern lights The northern lights We lit a fire as the night got colder What a view with your head on my shoulder Still the one that I can't get over In my head, you're still mine I go back every night See your face in summer skies I count the stars inside your eyes Baby, what went wrong, what went right Fades away as years go by We may not have a whole lifetime But at least we had the northern lights The northern lights
