[Verse 1]
She's tired of thinking till the sun comes up
Her body aches when she's awake
It kills her mother when she drinks too much
She can't stay sober for a day
She's giving everything to numb the burns
Addicted to the losing fight
She looks vacant but the wheels still turn
She could be singing this tonight

[Chorus]
I wanna touch the northern lights
We could leave the world behind
I wanna know what it's like
To walk away from this life

[Verse 2]
I have to cross entire oceans when
I want a moment of her time
She never wants to fall in love again
And every kiss would be a crime
Maybe she suffers for the thrill of it all
But I know she's thinking when she falls

[Chorus]
I wanna touch the northern lights
We could leave the world behind
I wanna know what it's like
To walk away from this life
[Bridge]
And maybe one day
When I've suffered
Tired and twisted
I'll call her
And we'll drive
Into the sunset
Into the sunset

[Chorus]
I wanna touch the northern lights
We could leave the world behind
I wanna know what it's like
To walk away from this life

I wanna touch the northern lights
We could leave the world behind
I wanna know what it's like
To walk away from this life
