Testo Northbound

I thought I?d seen an angel I should have looked away But your honey-blond hair and your sweet blue eyes were all you had to say When a man is lonely he sometimes drops his guard I should have seen the headlights I always lost at cards They said you?d come from Rosedale They said you?d had a fall I?d just cleaned up had an empty cup after wailin? at the wall You smiled and reached You didn?t preach But you took me where I?d been God knows how I could have missed the sting of another sin Then came the fight in the moonless night I had to quit the pain So tonight I?m headin? northbound on a southbound train Northbound / goin? northbound The sun is risin? slowly as we reach the city?s edge It seems like it was years ago standin? on that ledge Today I walk on water in a gentle fallin? rain She took all I never had but my Savior took my shame Sometimes it takes misery to connect my heart and brain So tonight I?m headin? northbound on a southbound train Oh, northbound / goin? northbound
