North and South of the River U2

[Verse 1]
I wanna reach out over the lough
And 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

[Verse 2]
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
But the wind from the lough just got colder and colder
There was a badness that had its way
But love wasn't lost, love will have its day
North and south of the river
North and south of the river

[Verse 3]
Can we stop playing these old tattoos?
Darling, I don't have the answer
I want to meet you where you are
I don't need you to surrender
'Cause there's no feeling that's so alone
As when the one you're hurting is your own
North and south of the river
North and south of the river
North and south of the river (Oh)
