Southern Boy In The North

Started in the south, when I was just 18 Time and tide has changed my point of view Looking back on all the time I never thought I'd have Never thought this road would lead to you Past the 25 and up past the places I know I guess I'm now a southern boy in the north Strange as it may seem I've found my home, it's right where I belong Let's hear it for the southern boy in the north People come and people go and places change around me This life has changed my jet black hair to grey But I know now what I didn't know then, that the show it must go on It's made me into the man I am today.   Past the 25 and up past the places I know I guess I'm now a southern boy in the north Strange as it may seem I've found my home, it's right where I belong Let's hear it for the southern boy in the north No regrets, no turning back Let's hear it for the southern boy in the north I'm moving on, I'm changing pace Let's hear it for the southern boy in the north....

You've been through more than Anyone could have Anyone should have, more than you deserve You've been let down by The ones who claimed to Really love you, but never really did And I guess the only thing That you really need to know Is do I love you enough To never let you go I wonder why they Wanted to hurt you Their love really bruised you, I see the scars It's really been hard to See you go through this But all I want is, to be in your life

Home 03:52
Walking out upon the waves as they crash upon the shore Looking out to the horizon I can reach it I'm sure Listening to the sound of the people rushing by Never stopping to think never wondering why Still I find my way Still I find my way Still I find my way Back home Many miles from the start, many years have turned me grey Decisions made, plans change, closing chapters, losing days Beginnings end, ends begin and I finally know my mind Got to mend the shattered past, got to seek until I find. Family story, family history, the choices that we make. Turn my back on what I knew, find the new in what we forsake. Never knowing that i could find the home I never knew. Finding home was what I found when I found you.

Bubble 03:29
Laying back with your head on my chest Never gonna let you go I can’t let you go Your touch is intoxicating Love is in your eyes I can see it in your eyes I’m lost in you, You are lost in me, Nothing else matters in the state we’re in I can barely breathe My senses lose their way And I surrender all I am to you In the bubble Sinning over and over again The feel of your skin As we’re moving as one I know you're scared to let go I will not hurt you You are safe in my arms Run away with me, Let’s get away from here Lose ourselves in all we know Run away with me, Don’t look back We can leave it all behind.

Talk 03:15
Can we go back to the start? Pretend like things were before Take back the love that we had Can we go back to the start? Don't tell me everything's changed When my love remains When all that I want is you Don't tell me everything's changed Why can't we talk about it Admit we were wrong Admit that it always was us all along Say all the things That we wanted to say Just stop pretending that we are ok Why can't we talk about it? X3 Can we just stop this pretence Take off the masks and stop talking around the things we should talk about Can we just stop this pretence Don't make me out to be wrong Or the last one to speak Help me to get back what we had. Don't make me out to be wrong Why can't we talk about it Admit we were wrong Admit that it always was us all along Say all the things That we wanted to say Just stop pretending that we are ok Why can't we talk about it? X3 Now's not the time to throw stones Just let me hold you close Bring back the memories of yesterday Now's not the time to throw stones I want you to say this mans mine Tell me that I can be yours Let's tear the world apart I want you to say this mans mine Make this a brand new start I want you to say this mans mine Fulfill the promises we made. I want you to say this mans mine
