Verve - A Northern Soul Lyrics
This is a tale of a northern soulThis is a tale of a northern soulLooking to find his way back homeLooking to find his way back homeHes coming from that same old roadHes coming from that same old roadYou know the one your folds dont knowYou know the one your folds dont knowI want to see if you know meI was born in a rented roomI want to see if you know meMy mother didnt get no flowersI was born in a rented roomDad didnt approve of me, do you?My mother didnt get no flowersDad didnt approve of me, do you?Im alive with something inside of meAnd I dont think Im coming backSo come on come in inside of meIm alive with something inside of meLets spread it all aroundAnd I dont think Im coming backSo come on come in inside of meGive me your powder and pillsLets spread it all aroundI want to see if they cure my illsIve no time for love and devotionGive me your powder and pillsNo time for old fashioned potionI want to see if they cure my illsIve no time for love and devotionTake a look into my eyesI tell you so many lies and then Ill let you go into the nightAnd I dont think Im coming downNo time for old fashioned potionIm alive with something inside of meAnd I cant seem to get it outTake a look into my eyesIm gonna die alone in bedI tell you so many lies and then Ill let you go into the nightThis is a tale of a northern soulAnd I dont think Im coming downLooking for his way back homeIm alive with something inside of meAnd my friend said, come in side of meAnd I cant seem to get it outAnd your speakers are telling the truthComing through and into your room on a river of soundThis is a tale of a northern soul looking for his way back homeIm gonna die alone in bedThis is a tale of a northern soulAnd if he sees it I know Ill know (repeat)Looking for his way back homeAnd my friend said, come in side of meAnd theres fighting on the street belowAnd your speakers are telling the truthI know theres fighting on the street belowComing through and into your room on a river of soundBut I dont care cause Im a northern soulAnd Im looking for a way back homeToo busy staying alive (repeat)This is a tale of a northern soul looking for his way back homeToo busy living a lie, too busy living my lifeToo busy staying aliveAnd if he sees it I know Ill know (repeat)And theres fighting on the street belowI know theres fighting on the street belowBut I dont care cause Im a northern soulAnd Im looking for a way back homeToo busy staying alive (repeat)Too busy living a lie, too busy living my lifeToo busy staying alive
