Lyrics:

VERSE ONE

You were all alone outside, I rushed to keep you warm,
It’s out of character for me but I knew you were the one.

You had me the taken back the moment you said ‘Hello’,
I still remember that song on the radio,
You always play it when you know that I’m feeling low.

CHORUS

Oh baby, you take me on a holiday,
You’ve got me hanging on every little thing that you say,
Oh baby, just take me far away.

I-e-I-e-I I can’t stop falling,
I-e-I-e-I I’ll follow you wherever you say,
Oh baby, you take me on a holiday.

VERSE TWO

I can feel the electricity running through my skin,
My heart is beating faster now than it’s ever been.

You drive me crazy when you turn up the radio,
But when you touch me there’s no place that I’d rather go,
So come on baby, just turn up the radio.

CHORUS

Oh baby, you take me on a holiday,
You’ve got me hanging on every little thing that you say,
Oh baby, just take me far away.

I-e-I-e-I I can’t stop falling,
I-e-I-e-I I’ll follow you wherever you say,
Oh baby, you take me on a holiday.

MIDDLE EIGHT

Oh baby, you take me on a holiday.
Oh baby, you take me on a holiday.

CHORUS

Oh baby, you take me on a holiday,
You’ve got me hanging on every little thing that you say,
Oh baby, just take me far away.

I-e-I-e-I I can’t stop falling,
I-e-I-e-I I’ll follow you wherever you say,
Oh baby, you take me on a holiday.

Oh baby, you take me on a holiday,
You’ve got me hanging on every little thing that you say,
Oh baby, just take me far away.

I-e-I-e-I I can’t stop falling,
I-e-I-e-I I’ll follow you wherever you say,
Oh baby, you take me on a holiday.

Took It All

After not only several years, bands, relationships (& breakups) and several drinks to ease the pain, The Northern Card formed as the creative and emotional outlet of both Ste Hayward & Joe Darbyshire.

Excessive hangovers, whole days in a cramped attic studio and a good ear for a catchy melody soon led to the band’s first demo ‘Good Night’ being recorded in 2011.

Subsequently, the band have gone on to record countless ideas, aspiring and succeeding in redrafting these snippets of creativity into fully fledged pop rock numbers.

In 2019, drummer Gareth Jones was coerced into joining the band despite the consistent warning signs.

Drawing influence from a wide variety of bands from all across the decades, the pair’s eclectic taste in music comes together perfectly to form what many can only describe as ‘bangers’. The band’s forthcoming second EP is currently being written and is expected to take their sound from strength to strength.
