1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 From the cold grey skies of the Mersey
To the gold Athenean hues
A red sea carries dreams and hopes
For the boys of Liverpool

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Where dreams will be for living
And the passion comes to call
The banners fill the sky with red
When Stevie strokes the ball

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 Songs will be composed for sure
And memories made complete
We’ll raise a jar and toast the names
From pubs down every street

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Robbie he may score the goal
That brings auld big ears home
And Xabi thread a pass so sure
A king upon his throne

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Whilst Carra gives his Dad a hug
And races to the Kop
Momo’s boss and Bolo’s sure
Our name is on the cup

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Finnan like a ghost to steal
While JAR he strikes
A thunderbolt with that left foot
To set the pitch alight

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Istanbul is history now
Recalled in songs of lore
Of how we tamed Maldini’s men
To change that half time score

8 Leave a comment on verse 8 0 Rafa he will calm the seas
And keep the nerves at bay
Remember “You are Liverpool”
And preach the ‘Liverpool Way’

9 Leave a comment on verse 9 0 Bob and Bill and Smokin’ Joe
In Heaven’s Terrace stand
With 96 reds who share with them
The best view in the land

10 Leave a comment on verse 10 0 From the cold grey skies of the Mersey
To the gold Athenean hues
A red sea carries dreams and hopes
For the boys of Liverpool.
