Faith In Liverpool

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 It’s not in the blue of the sky up above
It’s not in your shoes or boots or your gloves
It’s not in the stones and the gravel of the park
But in the blood and the faith that pours through you heart
It’s not in the boredom of each working day
It’s not in the moments that just slipped away
It’s not in the pulse of light or the shadow of dark
But in the blood and the faith that pours through your heart

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 It’s not in the paint and the bricks of the walls
It’s not even in the pull when temptation calls
It’s not in the kisses that tear you apart
But in the blood and the faith that pours through your heart
You’ll find it with Shankly and Bob and Our Joe
You’ll find it within you wherever you go
And you’ve cherished its goodness right from the start
It’s there in the blood and the faith that pours through your heart.
