I never felt magic crazy as this
I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea
I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree
But now you’re here
Brighten my northern sky

I’ve been a long time that I’m waiting
Been a long time that I’m blown
I’ve been a long time that I’ve wandered
Through the people I have known
Oh, if you would and you could
Straighten my new mind’s eye

Would you love me for my money
Would you love me for my head
Would you love me through the winter
Would you love me ‘til I’m dead
Oh, if you would and you could
Come blow your horn on high

I never felt magic crazy as this
I never saw moons knew the meaning of the sea
I never held emotion in the palm of my hand
Or felt sweet breezes in the top of a tree
But now you’re here

Brighten my northern sky

Fantastic, fantastic!! I always feel peace and sth special while listening to his songs:) This time is valuable for me.
Nick is the master of song and lyric..i dunno how he did it. Also, thank you for bringing my name with this amazing song..it's Prestige keke. He in unbelievable human thing. Isn't he? :)

by the way, it would be very good choice to devote if you found someone special to you due to it's meaning. How sensetive, pure, hopeful and strong the words are.
