Bilingual
I want to reach out over the lough
And feel your hand across the water
Walk with you along an unapproved road
Not looking over my shoulder
I want to see and I want to hear
To understand your fears
But we're north and south of the river
ย
I've been doing it wrong all of my life
This holy town has turned me over
A young man running from what he didn't understand
But the wind from the lough just got colder and colder
There was a badness that had it's way
Love wasn't lost, love will have it's day
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
ย
Can we stop playing these old tattoos?
Darling, I don't have the answer
I want to meet you
Where you are
I don't need you to surrender
'Cuz there's no feeling
That's so alone
As when the one you're hurting is your own
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
ย
North and south of the river
ย
Some high ground is not worth taking
Some connections are not worth making
There's an old church bell no longer ringing
Some old songs are not worth bringing
North, some high ground is not worth taking
North and south of the river
