VERSE
When I was a girl of seventeen
Went to a psychic to find what the future held for me
She said I’d meet a boy of the foreign kind
Ten years later, I would find
That this American girl would fall in love
With a Canadian Boy from the Great White North
Now I’m packing up this big Uhaul
Pre-CHORUS
And yeah, the future it could be scary
And all my friends tell me I’m crazy
CHORUS
Well I’ve done crazier things than fall in love before
I’ve jumped out of planes and I’ve traveled and I’ve seen the world
I want to take a deep breath, take a big leap
And now my eyes are closing
I want to trust, yeah I want to trust
That this parachute will open
VERSE
Been driving since yesterday and I pull over on the side of the road
Got to take this life in before my destiny takes hold
I look at the sky and the Milky Way is bright tonight
Pre-CHORUS
Standing out here in the Canadian Prairie
I ask myself if this is crazy
Repeat CHORUS
BRIDGE
And just then, greens and blues across the sky
I’ve never seen such beauty in my life
This is the first time that I’ve seen the Northern Lights
And I’m taking this as a good sign
Yeah I’m taking this as a good sign
CHORUS
Well I’ve done crazier things than fall in love before
I’ve jumped out of planes and I’ve traveled and I’ve seen the world
So I’m going to take a deep breath, take a big leap
And now my eyes are closing
I’m going to trust, yeah I’m going to trust
That this parachute will open
Will open
I’ve done crazier things than fall in love
Yeah, I’ve done crazier things than fall in love
