Northern Lights Lyrics by American Aquarium

Burn.Flicker.Die.

2012

I'm just a passing ship in the dark
Never stay 'til the morning, makes leaving too hard
I've made a living breaking young girls hearts
It ain't no fun when your hearts the one that starts falling apart

So when the day turns to night
And the path is hard to find
Won't you be my northern lights

Anything I've ever loved
I found a way to love
Anything I've ever lost
I've found an excuse
So don't give up on me babe
If it's the last thing you do
Don't cut the strings of the only thing
I'm holding on to

'cause when the day turns to night
And the path is hard to find
Won't you be my northern lights

And I'm tired of running away
I'm tired of bringing you down
I'm just hoping there's a way
We can turn this ship around

When the day turns to night
And the path is hard to find
Won't you be more northern lights
Northern Lights
