Northern Lights

There’s no feeling like pissing in the ocean
Or cooking on an open flame
Or walking on your 100th mile
To a town you don’t even know the name
I just hopped on a plane, just looking for a change of pace
Everything forever changed
Forever changed
Forever changed

I want you
I won’t lie
I’d take a train, or bus or fly
To see the Northern lights
In a Canadian Sky
With a drink and a smoke
Just you and I

Feeling the pressure lately
I can barely bare the weight
I’m taking stock, thinking a lot, and trying to get back into shape
Over the Frances Mountains, I’m feeling the pain
And it’s a long road to maintain

I still gotta lotta life to live, too many Sundays stuck in bed
The refuge from my office gig, I’d rather die than to settle
Cause that’s just no way to live
The years fly fast, can’t believe the age I just passed
Can’t believe that many years ago my dad passed
I gotta make something of myself, for his ass

I walked on to the wrong train
You asked me my name
At the end of the day
We were sharing a place to stay

I want you
I won’t lie
I’d take a train, or bus, or fly
To see the Northern lights
In a Canadian Sky
With a drink and a smoke
Just you and I

Walked 500 miles, to get to a new head space
My dreams had faded, couldn’t visualize that place
I’d become content with day to day, monotony
Life changing experience, committed, already gone
Left my home and what I knew, sometimes you just gotta move on
Never know when you’ll bump into a stranger, who sets you on a path
Felt like I was 12 years old, crushing on the pretty girl in math class
What a trip, 40 days, Camino, if you got a blank page
It changed my life, man. She did too.
You never know when the love bug will bite you
