Lyrics

I know you'll find your way without me
I know that's just a fact of life
But if I can be there for you sometime when you need me
Help get you through your darkest night
Oh, just to be your northern light
Just for a small amount of time
The honor, the privilege, it would be all mine
I've seen that morning light and it looks so bright
Sometimes it's gonna be hard, I'm not gonna lie
You remember this one thing and you'll be alright
The only thing that stays the same is that everything's changing
Trick is you just gotta enjoy the ride
Oh, just to be your northern light
Just for a small amount of time
The honor, the privilege, it would be all mine
I've seen that morning light and it looks so bright
And if you get lost just look to the sky
Every star you see is a loved one watching over you tonight
Oh, just to be your northern light
Just for a small amount of time
The honor, the privilege, it would be all mine
To do one thing worthwhile in this God forsaken life
Darling, you've made me the luckiest man alive
I've seen that morning light and it looks so bright
Looks so bright, it looks so bright
Looks so bright, it looks so bright
