[Verse 1]
You can live in the house and I will find
A little place around the corner
Trouble comes from the strangest quarters
It snuck up on us now without a warning

[Pre-Chorus]
Every night I hang my head outside into the stars
It's a wonder I can even talk at all

[Verse 2]
I walk by kids that hang on corners tripping out
Afraid of what they'll miss
Late at night I hear other voices crying out
I never wanted this

[Pre-Chorus]
I played you all my favourite songs, catch you when you fall
You look at me saying that's not it at all

[Chorus]
Oh my, I can't help wondering why I blew it again
I let you down
I watched your tears come splashing all around
All my life, I feel like I've been blind
But the moments that shine are so hard to find
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Hey, look those northern lights are dancing
Come on out and we'll sit here on the lawn
We won't talk we'll only listen
Maybe we can stop what's going on

[Pre-Chorus]
Every night, we look out on what's left of all our dreams
It's a wonder we still can talk at all

[Chorus]
Oh my, I can't help wondering why I blew it again
I let you down
I watched your tears come splashing all around
All my life, I feel like I've been blind
But the moments that shine are so hard to find
