Roderick Cronin & Rob Wickenden - North Side Of The City lyrics

i see the setting sun on the homes in a far off distant place away from here i see the tall new buildings against the skyline when the day is clear i once had a job out there and a certain girl i met but that was many years ago her face i can’t forget. i see the setting sun on the homes in a far off distant place a distant place away from here bridge the north side of the city is where i want to be the north side of the city there is someone there for me. i have no one to take me there ‘been out of work too long i know it’s the place where i belong on a cold and dark winters night the roof leaking on my head i should have stuck around to see with someone to share my bed i see the setting sun on the homes in a far off distant place away from here i see the tall new buildings against the skyline when the day is clear things were good way back then and time was pa**ing fast the things we did i can’t forget but i knew it couldn’t last i see the setting sun on the homes in a far off distant place a distant place away from here on a cold and dark winters night the roof leaking on my head i should have stuck around to see with someone to share my bed i see the setting sun on the homes in a far off distant place a distant place away from here (repeat)
