Spirit Of '76 - The Alarm[00:00:00]

Well I find myself in reverie[00:00:35]

'Bout what we might have had[00:00:39]

And what might have been[00:00:41]

We had something going once[00:00:44]

That was such a long long time ago[00:00:46]

It was way back in '76[00:00:51]

Our friendship formed of pure innocence[00:00:55]

We first met in Mathew Street[00:00:59]

Where we heard something that would set us free[00:01:02]

A sign stands over a door it says[00:01:08]

"Four lads who shook the world"[00:01:11]

In the depths of those heady nights[00:01:16]

We would dream of those bright lights[00:01:20]

Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend[00:01:24]

And my friend John he went away[00:02:04]

He made some mistakes[00:02:07]

Spent time in Walton jail[00:02:09]

And now when I see him we still talk[00:02:11]

But there's no light shining in his eyes[00:02:15]

And Susie she was seventeen[00:02:20]

And more beauty in this world[00:02:23]

I swear you'll never see[00:02:25]

I was gonna be king[00:02:27]

And she was gonna be queen[00:02:29]

But now all she does is hide behind the tears[00:02:31]

If there was more sense in this world[00:02:36]

And work wasn't so hard to find[00:02:38]

You would not be going your way[00:02:44]

I would not be going mine[00:02:47]

Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend[00:02:51]

Somewhere tonight out on the street[00:02:55]

Somewhere beneath this city's heat[00:02:59]

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by[00:03:03]

Life is cruel and so unkind[00:03:07]

Oh Oh the SPIRIT OF '76[00:03:11]

And Pete has seen his dreams come true[00:03:36]

But that don't make him no hero[00:03:39]

He's just one of the lucky few[00:03:41]

If a man can't change the world these days[00:03:43]

I still believe a man can change his own destiny[00:03:46]

But the price is high that has got to be paid[00:03:51]

For everyone who survives there are many who fail[00:03:54]

I've seen my friends caught out in that crossfire[00:03:59]

All their dreams and hopes smashed on the funeral pyre[00:04:02]

I will never give in until the day I die[00:04:06]

Get myself some independence[00:04:15]

Carve out a future with my two bare hands[00:04:18]

Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend[00:04:23]

Somewhere tonight out on the street[00:04:27]

Somewhere beneath this city's heat[00:04:30]

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by[00:04:34]

Life is cruel and so unkind[00:04:38]

Oh Oh the SPIRIT OF '76[00:04:42]

Mersey lights shine in the distance[00:04:57]

Same as they did for us then[00:05:00]

Mersey lights shine bright in the distance[00:05:05]

Where are you now my friend[00:05:09]

You see some nights when I can't sleep[00:05:13]

I still think of you[00:05:17]

And all the promises[00:05:21]

All our dreams we shared[00:05:23]

I know those lights still call to you[00:05:29]

I can hear them now[00:05:37]

I can hear them now[00:05:40]

(Still shining for us)[00:05:46]

(Let em shine)[00:05:52]

(Can you hear them)[00:05:56]

(Can you hear them)[00:05:59]

(Lights are still shining)[00:06:21]

Somewhere tonight out on the street[00:06:26]

Somewhere beneath this city's heat[00:06:30]

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by[00:06:34]

Life is cruel and so unkind[00:06:38]

Oh- Oh[00:06:42]

Where's it gone[00:06:44]

The SPIRIT OF '76[00:06:45]
