It was something, something that you said to me As we watched the road unwind, rain turn into snow We were talking about the valley of the river tyne When I saw something in you The world has left behind We had crossed the borderline We had crossed the borderline Into the sacred and divine Heading north on the sixty nine We had found our way into God’s land It was dark when we reached the higher ground And the things you said to me brought tears to our eyes On the road to the valley of the river tyne I saw something in you, the world has left behind We had crossed the borderline We had crossed the borderline Into the sacred and divine Heading north on the sixty nine We had found our way into God’s land Wherever I may roam This will always be my home My heart forever more will be In God’s land Wherever I may roam This will always be my home My heart forever more will be In God’s land
