Well I find myself in reverie bout what we might have had And what might have been We had something going once That was such a long, long time ago It was way back in 76 Our friendship formed of pure innocence We first met in mathew street Where we heard something that would set us free A sign stands over a door, it says Four lads who shook the world In the depths of those heady nights We would dream of those bright lights Oh my friend, oh my friend, oh my friend And my friend john, he went away He made some mistakes Spent time in walton jail And now when I see him we still talk But theres no light shining in his eyes And susie, she was seventeen And more beauty in this world I swear youll never see I was gonna be king And she was gonna be queen But now all she does is hide behind the tears Letras de cancionesIf there was more sense in this world And work wasnt so hard to find You would not be going your way I would not be going mine Oh my friend, oh my friend, oh my friend Somewhere tonight out on the street Somewhere beneath this citys heat In the eyes of strangers who pass me by Life is cruel and so unkind Oh, oh the spirit of 76 And pete has seen his dreams come true But that dont make him no hero Hes just one of the lucky few If a man cant change the world these days I still believe a man can change his own destiny But the price is high that has got to be paid For everyone who survives there are many who fail Ive seen my friends caught out in that crossfire All their dreams and hopes smashed on the funeral pyre I will never give in until the day I die Get myself some independence Carve out a future with my two bare hands Oh my friend, oh my friend, oh my friend Somewhere tonight out on the street Somewhere beneath this citys heat In the eyes of strangers who pass me by Life is cruel and so unkind Oh, oh the spirit of 76 Mersey lights shine in the distance Same as they did for us then Mersey lights shine bright in the distance Where are you now my friend? You see some nights when I cant sleep I still think of you And all the promises,all our dreams we shared I know those lights still call to you I can hear them now I can hear them now (still shining for us) (let em shine) (can you hear them) (can you hear them) (lights are still shining) Somewhere tonight out on the street Somewhere beneath this citys heat In the eyes of strangers who pass me by Life is cruel and so unkind Oh- oh Wheres it gone The spirit of 76 From Letras Mania
