Summercross - My Northern Heart Lyrics

In northern heartlands living under northern skies
Dreaming northern dreams and each day living northern lives
I lift my eyes and look up to my nearby grey-green hills
Across the moors and dales, town halls and terraces and factories and mills

My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
Oh can't you see, oh won't you free my northern heart
My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart

There's rich folk and there's poor folk, some to the manor born
But that's not me, you'll find me in the Manor or the Swan
No chip upon my shoulder, no silver spoon in mouth
Well I'll be here forever, I won't ever leave, my heart won't work down south

My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
Oh can't you see, oh won't you free my northern heart
My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart

Deep in this earth, there's a special kind of gold
There's something in the air, it's in my heart and in my soul
Beneath this land, fire's burning deep inside
The flame that's in my heart it burns with pride

There's grit in every sinew, there's spirit in my heart
There's something in the water that sets northern folk apart
Rugby League, Best Bitter, it's the only place to live
I'll live here till I die here, but for now I've got a northern heart to give

My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
Oh can't you see, oh won't you free my northern heart
My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart

My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
Oh can't you see, oh won't you free my northern heart
My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
Oh can't you see, oh won't you free my northern heart

My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
Oh can't you see, oh won't you free my northern heart
My northern heart, my northern heart, my northern heart
