Northern Soul

Midnight, moonlight The wind blows off St. Clair I'm stuck at a red light, waiting At 6 Mile and Delaware The sound of a distant Firebird The echo of a rhyme in Smokey's words And absence, sweet absence Fills the freezing air I've been wayside for years now But no-one seems to care Their eyes on a distant horizon I drove them out of here I gave you the American dream And the music for your movie scene But you left me, bleeding So listen to my prayer Oh oh Oh oh You can break my heart and crush my dreams But you can never take my soul You can crack my stones and melt my steel But you can never take my soul You can break my heart and crush my dreams But you can never take my soul You can crack my stones and melt my steel But you can never take my soul You can never take my soul You can never take my soul You can never take my soul Mmm, you can never take my soul You can never take my soul You can never take my soul You can break my heart and crush my dreams But you can never take my soul You can crack my stones and melt my steel But you can never take my soul You can break my heart and crush my dreams But you can never take my soul You can crack my stones and melt my steel But you can never take my soul --- Northern Soul - Above & Beyond and Richard Beford
