Our Fears - Northern Lights (A Song for Barbara) Lyrics

I'm so tired, but I can't sleep
Still scanning the bed for your body heat
It's been so long since I could feel you by my side
When I see you now, we barely speak
But you still mean so much to me
I still try to find a way to turn back time

We both were just dead things brought down by winter's cold
But then summer came and took us away and now we shine like gold

I see you
I can feel you in my bones
Your voice it still assures me that I am not alone
You're the northern lights that guide my way
You're everything that's true
No matter how far I stray I still come back to

You stood out in the crowded room, I bloomed against the wall
The boys they tried to take a piece, but I just want it all
You walked up and said "dance with me", but I was so drunk I could barely see
But when your eyes met with mine, it felt like destiny

You took my hand and changed my life
You kissed me soft, but held me tight
In a world that's so dark
You're my guiding light

I see you
I can feel you in my bones
Your voice it still assures me that I am not alone
You're the northern lights that guide my way
You're everything that's true
No matter how far I stray I still come back to you

Always together, we'll never part
Forever and always in my heart
Nothing could ever change
Nothing could ever take this love

I stand before you now with roses in hand
As if it could make you understand
That I would trade your life for mine
