Spirit Of 76 (Live) - The Alarm[00:00:01]

Well I find myself in reverie[00:00:58]

Bout what we might have had[00:01:02]

And what might have been[00:01:05]

We had something goin' once[00:01:08]

That was such a long long time ago[00:01:11]

It was way back in 76[00:01:17]

Our friendship formed of pure innocence[00:01:22]

We first met in Mathew Street[00:01:27]

Where we heard something that would set us free[00:01:31]

A sign stands over a door it says[00:01:37]

Four lads who shook the world[00:01:42]

In the depths of those heady nights[00:01:47]

We would dream of those bright lights[00:01:52]

Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend[00:01:57]

And my friend John[00:02:49]

He went away[00:02:51]

He made some mistakes[00:02:53]

Spent time in Walton jail[00:02:55]

And now when I see him we still talk[00:02:57]

But there's no light shinin' in his eyes[00:03:00]

And Susie she was seventeen[00:03:04]

And more beauty in this world[00:03:07]

I swear you'll never see[00:03:10]

I was gonna be king[00:03:12]

And she was gonna be queen[00:03:13]

But now all she does is hide behind the tears[00:03:15]

If there was more sense in this world[00:03:20]

And work wasn't so hard to find[00:03:23]

You would not be goin' your way[00:03:27]

I would not be goin' mine[00:03:30]

Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend[00:03:34]

Somewhere tonight out on the street[00:03:38]

Somewhere beneath this city's heat[00:03:42]

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by[00:03:45]

Life is cruel and so unkind[00:03:49]

Oh the SPIRIT OF 76[00:03:53]

And Pete has seen his dreams come true[00:04:23]

But that don't make him no hero[00:04:27]

He's just one of the lucky few[00:04:29]

If a man can't change the world these days[00:04:31]

I still believe a man can change his own destiny[00:04:34]

But the price is high that has got to be paid[00:04:38]

For everyone who survives there are many who fail[00:04:42]

I've seen my friends caught out in that crossfire[00:04:45]

All their dreams and hopes smashed[00:04:49]

On the funeral pyre[00:04:51]

I will never give in until the day I die[00:04:53]

Get myself some independence[00:05:01]

Carve out a future with my two bare hands[00:05:04]

Oh my friend Oh my friend Oh my friend[00:05:08]

Somewhere tonight out on the street[00:05:12]

Somewhere beneath this city's heat[00:05:15]

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by[00:05:19]

Life is cruel and so unkind[00:05:23]

Oh the SPIRIT OF 76[00:05:26]

Mersey lights shine in the distance[00:05:55]

Same as they did for us then[00:06:00]

Mersey lights shine bright in the distance[00:06:05]

Where are you now my friend[00:06:09]

You see some nights when I can't sleep[00:06:13]

I still think of you[00:06:17]

And all the promises[00:06:22]

All our dreams we shared[00:06:25]

I know those lights still call to you[00:06:32]

I can hear them now[00:06:47]

I can hear them now[00:06:51]

Still shinin' for us[00:06:59]

Let them shine[00:07:02]

Let them shine[00:07:06]

Lights are still shinin'[00:07:33]

Somewhere tonight out on the street[00:07:35]

Somewhere beneath this city's heat[00:07:39]

In the eyes of strangers who pass me by[00:07:43]

Life is cruel and so unkind[00:07:46]

Oh Oh oh oh[00:07:50]

This is the SPIRIT OF 76[00:08:08]
