You wear your heart on your sleeve
Like Christmas day and New Years Eve
I remember staring up too late
Like we did on our first date

With a snow beaten covered path
You smile, I just laugh
I thought I’d never feel this way
I thought I’d never see the day

But here I am, staring in your eyes
With feeling like we could fly
You say darling don’t you waste your time
Don’t you know it’s a crime

So I’ll hang my hat on the door
And hold you close like I did before
Now I know you’re the one
I promise you not to run

If I go, if I stay, I promise we’ll be okay
If we fight, a different night, we’ll find a way
There’s too much love within our hearts
Why don’t we just restart

I’ll say you have a pretty smile
You’ll tell me to stay awhile
Listening to Help Me Make it Through the Night
As we lay and watch the Northern Lights

Think of all the time we waste
With all the problems we have faced
Hold your breath and face the sun
Hold me close and love me, now that the day is done
