lyrics

There’s a place where a road reaches out
In a heavy southern night
No lights of misty wine
Where we stand, they looked down a fiery mile
Where the road runs to the city
Through a sea of vacant smiles
October nights, down where they came
Along a Northern Line

The sounds of sirens called
They ran down Balham High Road
Forever sleeping on the Northern Line
Now where I stand
It’s all here in these everlasting lives
They’re fixed in time

Who can say where nameless hammers fall?
We’re formed and we are broken
Like shadows on the wall
And here tonight, between familiar signs
They whisper down the years
Along this Northern Line
October nights, and they remain
Under the Northern Line
