Northern Star

Saw you at the market somewhere down on aisle 5 Might have been someone who looked just like you from behind I didn't care Just went on pretending you were there Flew to Canada Saw some mountains painted blue Jealous of the way they're the closer than I am to you I said a prayer Hoping that it made it's way up there I like to think you hear me Wherever you are I like to think you're near me And you'll never be too far Every night without you feels like stumbling though the dark Trying to find my way without my northern star Last time I was in Nashville Maybe the time before I woke up to a figure standing at my door I wasn't scared I just started talking to you there I like to think you hear me Wherever you are I like to think you're near me And you'll never be too far Every night without you feels like stumbling though the dark Trying to find my way without my northern star (Ooh, ooh, ooh) (Ooh, ooh, ooh) Just the thought of dying used to scare me half to death Now half of me is excited for the day I'll see you next Until that time I'll just keep on talking to the sky
