I want to reach out over the Loch
Feel your hand across the water
Walk with you along an unapproved road
Not looking over my shoulder
I wanna see, and I wanna hear
To understand your fears
But we re north and south of the river
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
As the wind from the Loch just blew colder and colder
There was a badness that had its way
But love wasn t lost, it just got mislaid
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
Can we stop playing these old tattoo s
Darling I don t have the answer
I wanna meet you where you are
I don t need ya to surrender
There is no feeling so alone
As when the one you re hurting is your own
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
Some high ground is not worth taking
And some connections are not worth making
There s an old church bell no longer ringing
And some old songs are not worth bringing
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
