Northern Soul Lyrics - Singles - Ricky Ross

When they come on television to tell about their loss 

And the camera finds them beaten up by grief 

Do you wonder that they get up every morning 

And sometimes don't believe? 

When you see, their eyes reminded of another day not shared 

With a child who never turned to say goodbye 

Are you comforted by somebody you love 

Or do you keep it down inside? 

Can you feel? 

Can you? 

From every breaking dawn, through to midnight's ghostly toll 

I thank him for the life in your northern soul 

Every time you cry and sulk back to the fold 

Through your misty eyes, I see your northern soul 

When it's down to just page seven, even on a slow news day 

Do you pause before you turn over the page? 

And although there is no photograph, no tears on television 

Do you find yourself reminded of their eyes? 

Can you feel? 

Can you? 

At every roadside shrine, where faded flowers console 

I shudder for the life inside your northern soul 

Every night you sleep, Ill lie down on your pillow 

And I feel each steady breath from your northern soul 

When every lights gone out and my bodys tired and old 

Youll keep my spirit young with your northern soul 

God, every way it breaks, Im bound to make it so 

To turn all fear to love with your northern soul
