Destination outward bound

I turn to see the northern lights behind the wing

Horizons seem to beckon me

Learned how to cry too youngso now I live to sing



The northern lights are in my mind

They guide me back to you

Horizons seem to beckon me

Learned how to cry too youngso now I live to sing



You know it's hard away from you

Travelling roads and passing through

It's not for money and it's not for fame

I just can't explainsometimes it's lonely



Marking the space between the days

Early hours pass away

I sing to you of northern lights

I sing for you of northern nights



Past or futurehere or there

Shelter comes in words from youso talk to me

I hear your voiceit comforts me

In morning dreams I take your handyou walk with me



The northern lights are in my mind

They guide me back to you

Peace enfolds the still night air

Home again I look for you and find you there



Desintation homeward now

Take the easy waybring me down

Making the hard way now I see

Hard to be really freeI'm missing you near me



Marking the space between the days

Early hours pass away

I sing to you of northern lights

I sing for you of northern nights



Chorus:



The northern lights are in my mind

They guide me back to you

The northern nights are in my eyes

They guide me back to you



Repeat chorus twice



The northern lights are in my mind

They guide me back to you
