Well he lit yo u up like Am ber Waves in his mov ie show
He fixed you up real g ood
'til I don' t know you any more
From b allet class to a l ap d ance straight to vid eo
And the pool side n ews
Was that h e wo uld be lau nching you
Into e very yo ung man's be droom (you gave it up)
On DVD and ma gazi ne (you gave it up)
A priv ate rit e of passage (you gave it up)
To eve ry boy' s sw eet drea m With their paper cuts
You s aid "he's got a healing mach ine
It glows in the d ark glows in the d ark"
You sa y "there's not a lot of me
Left anym ore just leave it alo ne
But i f you're by and you ha ve the time
Tell the No rthern li ghts to keep sh ining
L ately it s eems like they're dr owning"
He could lig ht you up
And su mmon every swan to the Lak eside
Off to Cabo San L ucas for some o ptic al st imulus
Then you s tarted to guess there was s omeo ne else
Though His f lint glass seeing all of y ou
I mmer sed in his sep ia
Into e very yo ung man's be droom (you gave it up)
On DVD and ma gazi ne (you gave it up)
A priv ate rit e of passage (you gave it up)
To eve ry boy' s sw eet drea m With their paper cuts
Yo u said "he's got a healing m achine
It glows in the d ark glows in the d ark"
You sa y "there's not a lot of me
Left anym ore just leave it alo ne
But i f you're by and you ha ve the time
Tell the No rthern li ghts to keep sh ining
L ately it s eems like they're dr owning"
So I w ent by cause I h ad the time
And told the No rthern Li ghts to keep sh ining
They t old me to t ell you they're w avin
