Northern Lights

Words & Music by Allison Crowe


The Northern Lights took me off guard
knocked me over and lifted me up
and through the shadow of a meteor
I saw your face

And yes I stood on the other side of the world
but I took the Northern Lights home to you

I fall into habits that I've carried
So many years and when I fall
I seem to pick them up
And I don't know when or where
But this isn't me, this visionary
That can barely see

And yes I stood on the other side of the world
but I took the Northern lights home to you

So much water floods my face
I am choking on words that I finally
have the courage to say
At the wrong time in the wrong place
And there's no one here to hear me
I just scream into an empty room

And yes I stood on the other side of the world
but I took the Northern Lights home to you

Everything falls and I will
be the last one standing yes
I will hold fast
because everything here begins again

Yes I stood on the other side of the world
and took the Northern Lights home to you

and took the Northern Lights home to you
