Lyrics for North View by Dave Stewart and The Lake Poets from the album The Lake Poets

You were a girl who came from nothing
Met a man from lesser still,
Down by the river

And the ruined paper mill.
Now the mill and you have left us
But the river it remains
Often I’ll go there
‘Cos it helps to ease the pain.
I’ve got a film of you from Christmas
I watch it when I’m low
And it’s your laughing
And I feel my sadness go.
You were lost and tired and lonely
When you left us in the spring
I see that moonbeam
And I feel the joy you bring.
Cos you lived by the river,
And the North View was your home
And you lived by the river
Now you’ll never be alone.
I see you in my mirror
I hear you in my mind
I never thought that I could feel so left behind.
You were lost and tired and lonely
When you left us in the spring
I see you in my dreams
And I feel the joy you bring.
Cos you lived by the river,
And the North View was your home
And you lived by the river
Now you’ll never be x 10
Cos you lived by the river,
And the North View was your home
And you lived by the river
Now you’ll never be alone.
