[00:00.00]North and South of the River - Christy Moore
[00:19.81]I want to reach out over the loch
[00:24.51]
[00:25.77]And feel your hand across the water
[00:28.01]
[00:29.95]Walk with you along an unapproved road
[00:34.16]
[00:34.97]Not looking over my shoulder
[00:37.60]
[00:39.66]I want to see
[00:40.91]
[00:41.97]I want to hear
[00:43.47]
[00:45.59]To understand your fears
[00:48.41]But we're north and south of the river
[00:54.78]
[00:57.99]I've been doing it wrong
[00:59.68]
[01:01.11]All of my life
[01:02.37]
[01:03.48]This holy town has turned me over
[01:05.92]
[01:07.74]A young man running from what he didn't understand
[01:11.49]
[01:12.36]As the wind from the lough just blew colder and colder
[01:16.61]
[01:18.92]There was a badness that had its way
[01:22.43]
[01:23.61]But love was not lost
[01:24.80]
[01:25.49]It just got mislaid
[01:27.55]
[01:28.57]North and south of the river
[01:35.07]
[01:36.01]North and south of the river
[01:39.44]
[01:56.88]Can we stop playing these old tattoos
[02:00.69]
[02:01.57]Darling I don't have the answer
[02:03.88]
[02:06.32]I want to meet you where you are
[02:09.82]
[02:11.13]I don't need you to surrender
[02:13.44]
[02:15.75]There is no feeling so alone
[02:19.44]As when the one you're hurting is your own
[02:24.06]
[02:24.88]North and south of the river
[02:30.77]
[02:34.02]Some high ground is not worth taking
[02:38.02]
[02:38.77]Some connections are not worth making
[02:42.58]
[02:43.14]There's an old church bell no longer ringing
[02:48.17]And some old songs not worth singing
[02:52.11]
[02:53.24]North and south of the river
[02:59.55]
[03:00.92]North and south of the river
