"The Northwood" lyrics

"The Northwood"

I went out to the deep northwood
Because a fire was in my head
Thinking of the face I left
The way she looked as I left her bed

Her words still ringing in my ears
The thrill is gone after all these years

I went out to the deep northwood
Because a fire was in my head
Thinking of the face I left
The way she looked as I left her bed

Her words still ringing in my ears
The thrill is gone after all these years

Our love gets blown away

He went out to the deep northwood
Left a fire raging in my head
