"Northern Boy" lyrics

When the days were so dark
And the night was a whisper
I was careless and strong
I was young

In the light from the moon
Where it shines on the river
With a heart void of doubt
I met you

Northern star, northern boy
Promise forevermore
I felt so safe here
Was blind with forever

Now there's tears in the night
And they glow in the moonlight
When I sing this for you
Northern boy

Cause you looked in my eyes
And you promised me life
There were tears on your face
And the violins playing

Northern star, northern boy
Promise forevermore
I felt so safe here
Was blind with forever

When the night got too dark
And you gave in to summer
Cause you needed the light
Northern boy

Northern star, northern boy
Promise forevermore
I felt so safe here
Was blind with forever

Now the leaves start to fall
And I wait for your call
Cause you promised me once
You'd be back in the winter

Now there's snow in the air
And there's nothing to fear
You can come back tonight
If you stay for the winter
