I was running down the road The fear was all I knew I was looking for a soul that’s real Then I ran into you And that cherry blossom tree Was a gateway to the sun And friendship, once it’s won It’s won, it’s one
Northside Just across the river from the Southside That’s a long way here
All the green and all the gold The hurt you hide The joy you hold The foolish pride That gets you out the door Up on Cedarwood Cedarwood Road
Sleepwalking down the road I’m not waking from these dreams ‘Cause it’s never dead It’s still my head It was a warzone in my teens I’m still standing on that street Still need an enemy The worst ones I can’t see But you can, you can
Northside Just across the river from the Southside That’s a long way here
All the green and all the gold The hurt you hide And the joy that you hold The foolish pride That sends you back for more Still up on Cedarwood Cedarwood Road
If the door is open it is not theft You can’t return to where you’ve never left Blossoms falling from a tree They cover you, cover me Symbols clashing, bibles smashing Paint the world you need to see Sometimes fear is the only place That we can call our home Cedarwood Road
And a heart that is broken Is a heart that is open And a heart that is broken Is a heart that is open
