Sun beats hard On Sunset Boulevard Much harder still In Notting Hill A northwind blows And carries me home Carries my heart, carries my soul When cool silks they turn to suede When young dreams are torn and frayed The South feels so cold and grey Today! Today the North's too many miles away Today! Today I got to get away I'm driving north I'm heading home I'm driving back To the place I once belonged It's all gone silent The light begins to fade One man unplugs The penny arcade A northwind blows And carries me home Carries my heart, carries my soul When cool silks they turn to suede When young dreams are torn and frayed The South feels so cold and grey Today! Today the North's too many miles away Today! Today I got to get away I'm driving north I'm heading home I'm driving back To the place I once belonged One sweet bouquet The flowers strewn The petals scattered Here in the North No dreams are shattered I'm driving north I'm heading home I'm driving back To the place I once belonged No we don't feel angry No we don't feel betrayed Unlike our fathers We don't remember better days No we don't feel angry No we don't feel betrayed We just live
