The Fullness - Northern Girl Lyrics

You are the one, you're my one and only
This is a chance for me to share our story
I think we met before our friendship began
I gave a CD to a barmaid but she wasn't a fan
I'd emigrated from the South to follow my dream
But nowt works out the way that it might seem
I was travelling North and South, going back and forth
My Mum said "One day you'll meet a girl from the North"

Love is the choice that I've chosen to make, it's the promise that I'm not gonna break

You're my Northern Girl and you speak your mind
You're my Northern Girl and I'm so glad you're mine
When you laugh out loud and your smile can't help but curl
I'm so glad that you are my Northern Girl

When I was 16 somebody told me
The name of the girl who would one day hold me
8 years passed until our first date
You invaded MySpace and conquered my top 8
Old Orleans, back in the day
You drew a picture on the table
And you said that you'd pay your way
You were so different to me
But you told your Mum my wife is what you wanted to be

Love is the choice that I've chosen to make, it's the promise that I'm not gonna break

You're my Northern Girl and you speak your mind
You're my Northern Girl and I'm so glad you're mine
When you laugh out loud and your smile can't help but curl
I'm so glad that you are my Northern Girl

Like 2 rivers joining, we struggle to blend
Opposite perspectives that we tend to defend
But there's another world that we can discover
When we truly listen to the heartbeat of another
Here's to the present and the gift of today
Another chance to know you in a different way
Open hearts, honesty, foot-rub, chocolate, cup of tea
So let's overcome and walk on forever
Whatever comes we're in this together

You're my Northern Girl and you speak your mind
You're my Northern Girl and I'm so glad you're mine
When you laugh out loud and your smile can't help but curl
I'm so glad that you are my Northern Girl
