《Spirit Of ’76》歌词

[00:06:58] Spirit Of '76 - The Alarm

[00:06:58] Well I find myself in reverie

[00:06:58] 'Bout what we might have had

[00:06:58] And what might have been

[00:06:58] We had something going once

[00:06:58] That was such a long, long time ago

[00:06:58] It was way back in '76

[00:06:58] Our friendship formed of pure innocence

[00:06:58] We first met in Mathew Street

[00:06:58] Where we heard something that would set us free

[00:06:58] A sign stands over a door, it says

[00:06:58] "Four lads who shook the world"

[00:06:58] In the depths of those heady nights

[00:06:58] We would dream of those bright lights

[00:06:58] Oh my friend, Oh my friend, Oh my friend

[00:06:58] And my friend John, he went away

[00:06:58] He made some mistakes

[00:06:58] Spent time in Walton jail

[00:06:58] And now when I see him we still talk

[00:06:58] But there's no light shining in his eyes

[00:06:58] And Susie, she was seventeen

[00:06:58] And more beauty in this world

[00:06:58] I swear you'll never see

[00:06:58] I was gonna be king

[00:06:58] And she was gonna be queen

[00:06:58] But now all she does is hide behind the tears

[00:06:58] If there was more sense in this world

[00:06:58] And work wasn't so hard to find

[00:06:58] You would not be going your way

[00:06:58] I would not be going mine

[00:06:58] Oh my friend, Oh my friend, Oh my friend

[00:06:58] Somewhere tonight out on the street

[00:06:58] Somewhere beneath this city's heat

[00:06:58] In the eyes of strangers who pass me by

[00:06:58] Life is cruel and so unkind

[00:06:58] Oh, Oh the SPIRIT OF '76

[00:06:58] And Pete has seen his dreams come true

[00:06:58] But that don't make him no hero

[00:06:58] He's just one of the lucky few

[00:06:58] If a man can't change the world these days

[00:06:58] I still believe a man can change his own destiny

[00:06:58] But the price is high that has got to be paid

[00:06:58] For everyone who survives there are many who fail

[00:06:58] I've seen my friends caught out in that crossfire

[00:06:58] All their dreams and hopes smashed on the funeral pyre

[00:06:58] I will never give in until the day I die

[00:06:58] Get myself some independence

[00:06:58] Carve out a future with my two bare hands

[00:06:58] Oh my friend, Oh my friend, Oh my friend

[00:06:58] Somewhere tonight out on the street

[00:06:58] Somewhere beneath this city's heat

[00:06:58] In the eyes of strangers who pass me by

[00:06:58] Life is cruel and so unkind

[00:06:58] Oh, Oh the SPIRIT OF '76

[00:06:58] Mersey lights shine in the distance

[00:06:58] Same as they did for us then

[00:06:58] Mersey lights shine bright in the distance

[00:06:58] Where are you now my friend?

[00:06:58] You see some nights when I can't sleep

[00:06:58] I still think of you

[00:06:58] And all the promises,all our dreams we shared

[00:06:58] I know those lights still call to you

[00:06:58] I can hear them now

[00:06:58] I can hear them now

[00:06:58] (Still shining for us)

[00:06:58] (Let em shine)

[00:06:58] (Can you hear them)

[00:06:58] (Can you hear them)

[00:06:58] (Lights are still shining)

[00:06:58] Somewhere tonight out on the street

[00:06:58] Somewhere beneath this city's heat

[00:06:58] In the eyes of strangers who pass me by

[00:06:58] Life is cruel and so unkind

[00:06:58] Oh- Oh

[00:06:58] Where's it gone

[00:06:58] The SPIRIT OF '76
