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
