North Of England
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Some of them came from the North of England
But some came from abroad
Well I've lied and I've cheated and they never found out
And it makes me feel down
I never quite know what it's like to be ignorant
Until you spend time in that town
I know i'm not here but I'm staying tonight
I said Oh, It makes me glad you're not around
Some came over from the North of England
But it doesn't seem to matter when you're not around
And it only seems to be a matter of time
Before you're moving even further South
You never quite know what it means to be intimate
Until you've been around
'Cos that's what it's like be with someone your thinking is
Alright to always wanting something else
I tried to go from air to sea
I tried to go by car
I ended up with them trying to talk their way out
But it always seems to be the way things go for you and me
Some of them came from the North of England
But some came from abroad
But whatever we're having, then believe me I'll try and go
Believe me im lieing or I'd rather start dieing, yeah.
