alaska

You asked me to meet you in alaska I was hesitant to go up there Sure, it's filled with serenity and light For only three months of the year I got your letter, should i bring my sweater? For the mountains we'll climb, said you'd take me sky high In lonely isles of listerine for miles Does it ever get too cold that it's hard to breathe? Well i guess i'll buy my ticket to alaska I've never been one for the cold but i'll have to Get used to the north tundra floor that could crash Underneath me and i bet with forests so vast I'd get lost captivated by whispers from the ash But i'd do it for you, Do it for you Late afternoon in alaska Surprised by the beauty in the air How long 'til winter was all i asked you Wanna soak in the green everywhere Cold grey November, I'm wearing your sweater It's wrapping me tight while i stay for the night I was nervous it was too soon, could i really love you? Feeling uncertain if you'll love me right... Well i bought my ticket to meet you in alaska I think i can handle the cold, i won't have to Be scared of the north tundra floor that won't crash Underneath me and i've walked the forests, so vast I get lost captivated by whispers from the ash But i'm doin' it for you, Doin' it for you The wild ice blue of the sea intrigued me Naively i jumped in to find how deceiving The beauty turned harsh And everything that i'd grown to love Turned dark Well i bought my ticket coming back from alaska Couldn't handle the cold, packed my sweater and ran from The north tundra floor, yeah it crashed underneath me And i ran through the forests so fast you couldn't save me Went crazy hearing whispers from the ash And i couldn't believe that i went To alaska for you I wish i didn't go To alaska for you
