| 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 | |
| In this day and age |
