Northern Lights

We were heading east on an open road
It was getting late, and only 14 hours to go
Seat leaned back, my feet up on the dashboard
Leaving the coast behind
You've got the clutch, I've got the stick
Nothing but freedom in your brown eyes
And just as I start drifting off
You pull off to the right
And you said baby
You ever seen the northern lights
I said no, but it's been a dream of mine
Then you tell me to look up at the sky
Through the sunroof of your car
With your fingers laced in mine
I fell in love with this world
And fell more in love with you at the same time
It was getting cold, had your jacket on my lap
With your shoulder as my pillow
You used your memory as a map
Highway speeding
And the radio blaring your favourite country song
You serenade me to sleep oh as you sing along
And just as I start drifting off
You pull off to the right
And you said baby
You ever seen the northern lights
I said no, but it's been a dream of mine
Then you tell me to look up at the sky
Through the sunroof of your car
With your fingers laced in mine
I fell in love with this world
And fell more in love with you at the same time
As the night passes, as the sky dances
Oh I watch and adore
Thank my creator every day for you
But still he gives me a little more
And you said baby
You ever seen the northern lights
I said no, but it's been a dream of mine
Then you tell me to look up at the sky
Through the sunroof of your car
With your fingers laced in mine
I fell in love with this world
And fell more in love with you at the same time
At the same time
