A Northern Soul Lyrics - A Northern Soul - The Verve

This is a tale of a Northern Soul 

Looking to find his way back home 

He's coming from that same old road 

You know the one your folks don't know 

I wanna see if you know me 

I was born in a rented room 

My mother didn't get no flowers 

Dad didn't approve of me, do you? 

I'm alive with something inside of me 

And I don't think I'm coming back 

So come on, come in inside of me 

Let's spread it all around 

Give me your powder and pills 

I want to see if they cure my ills 

I've no time for love and devotion 

No time for old fashioned potion

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

I wanna see if you know me 

Take a look into my eyes 

I tell you so many lies and then I'll let you go into the night 

I'm alive with something inside of me 

And I don't think I'm coming down 

I'm alive with something inside of me... 

And I can't seem to get it out 

Listen to this (x4) 

I'm gonna die alone in bed (x8) 

This is a tale of a northern soul 

Looking for his way back home 

And my friend said, "Come in side of me" 

And your speakers are telling the truth 

Coming through right into your room on a river of sound 

This is a tale of a northern soul 

Looking for his way back home 

And if he sees it I know I'll know 

And if he sees it I know I'll know 

And there's fighting on the street below 

I know there's fighting on the street below 

Ah but I don't care cause I'm a northern soul 

And I'm looking for a way back home 

And I'm looking for a way back home 

Too busy staying alive 

Too busy staying alive 

Too busy staying alive (it keeps turning, everybody's learning, keeping track of a heart attack) 

Too busy staying alive (it keeps turning, everybody's burning, keeping track of a heart attack) 

Too busy staying alive (it keeps turning, everybody's learning, keeping track of a heart attack) 

Too busy staying alive (it keeps turning, everybody's burning, keeping track of a heart attack) 

Too busy living a lie (it keeps turning, everybody's learning, keeping track, I'm not coming back) 

too busy living my life (it keeps turning, everybody's learning, keeping track, now I'm coming back) 

Too busy staying alive (it keeps turning, everybody's learning, keeping track, now I'm coming back) 

Too busy staying alive (it keeps turning, everybody's learning, keeping track, now I'm coming back) 

(yes I'm coming back, yes I'm coming back)
