North winds blow to lead me home On down the road where she's waiting for me I've been gone for far too long With empty pockets and the same old busted dream We're not guaranteed happiness, you see But there's a little thing That keeps me holding on the when the world gets mean It's a kiss, it's a fight, it's a keepsake It's a shame when it makes your heart break It's the breath in my lungs that your eyes take When you look at me It's the God up above that we pray to It's the chill in my skin when I touch you It's the promise we vow not to undo It's what we're all made of A little thing called love I wonder if her look has changed Or if her lips still taste the same, I'm weak I kissed her just as I left home But that was two tattoos ago, I think I'm passing all these towns for a second round But this time I'm homeward bound With something deep inside that's beating loud It's a kiss, it's a fight, it's a keepsake It's a shame when it makes your heart break It's the breath in my lungs that your eyes take When you look at me It's the God up above that we pray to It's the chill in my skin when I touch you It's the promise we vow not to undo It's what we're all made of A little thing called love I'll be your shelter I'll be your kiss goodnight I'll bring the love letters that I wrote you to life There ain't nothin' better than the thought of holding you tonight All tangled up beneath moonlight It's a kiss, it's a fight, it's a keepsake It's a shame when it makes your heart break It's the breath in my lungs that your eyes take When you look at me, Yeah It's the God up above that we pray to It's the chill in my skin when I touch you It's the promise we vow not to undo It's what we're all made of A little thing called love A little thing called love, yeah A little thing called love A little thing called love, yeah North winds blow to lead me home On down the road where she's waiting for me
