NW1

[Verse 1] Atop the reservoir behind The Angel I took in Poitín from a plastic cup And then I must have wandered a thousand miles Cursing all the cars and stars for their luck And then I know I stepped onboard a vision And I must have followed it with the wind Up until I came to the tough decision That it might be time to let go within [Chorus] Now there's a part of it Forever be young I left in the heart of it NW1 [Verse 2] And so then cut adrift up Camden Passage I found myself walking with a chalk white foal All along the Regent’s Canal placid As I walk, I fill my pockets with coal And thеn feeding snide scores to a cabby To get mе with a banshee across to Bow All along the Teeling keening in me I think I must have drowned in the radio [Chorus] Now there's a part of it Forever be young I left in the heart of it NW1 NW1 [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] And I awoke, and I awoke And I awoke, and I awoke And I awoke with notes left on a table Some were marked with pen, some with the Queen And when I arrive back in The Angel She will know exactly where I'd been [Chorus] Now there’s a part of it Forever be young I left in the heart of it NW1 Yeah, now there's a part of it Forever be young I left in the heart of it NW1 NW1
