Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I've felt better I've been up all night I can feel it coming The morning light The air is so cold here It's so hard to breathe We better take cover Will you cover me? Way up here with the Northern lights Beyond you and me I dreamt of us in another life One we've never reached You know we're sinking We could fade away I'm not going down Not today The air is so cold here Too cold to see We have to take cover Cover me Way up here with the Northern lights Beyond these broken bars I pictured us in another life Where we're all super stars
