1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 They tell me heaven is a far off place
And a land where few have been
But the fields on which my dreams are cravin’
A thousand times I’ve seen
The grass is green as emerald’s shinin’
The blessed turf of glory there
And when I hear the roar go up
I know that I am comin’ near

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 And then my feet they race like demons
And my heart beats faster still
The gates of heaven stand eternal
Before the saint all know as Bill
Now quieter days we’ve known and yet
I know one day our time will come
When once again we’ll lift the title
Reign again as Champions

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 A thousand years may come to pass
The sun plunge to the sea
For long I’ve loved the mighty reds,
No better love for me
So lads and lasses raise thee glasses
Toast our victory
We’ll don the stars and grace the bars
For Kings oh Kings are we

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Keep your silver keep your gold
No money buys this love
Not when I have watched Dalglish
God’s Angel from above
Now we’ve Rafa here to guide us
With Carra, Xabi and Stevie G
The future’s red a golden future
Cisse Finnan and King Luis.

Notes

“I was born by the banks of the Mersey
Facin’ the Irish Sea
It might not look like heaven to you
But its home sweet home to me”
