1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 The past, the past has gone at last
Like Sundays match result
We look toward the future
As yer title hopes fade out

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 So Sundays game wasn’t that important?
Ah, but what if you had won
Would you be still quoting yester years wins?
I don’t think so me son!

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 An o.g won the league cup for us or so you say
A hotly disputed goal put you through
Ah but winning, thats the name of the game
And we’ve just beaten you!

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Every game is crucial
No matter what you say
” Winning is not eveything, It’s the only thing”
As Bill Shankly used to say

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Your history of trophy wins is fantastic
Of that there is no doubt
But every time you lose a match
Must you roll that history out?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 Yesterday! Done and dusted
Sundays match forgot
If we had lost, thats the way it goes
It’s history, is it not?

Notes

Very sad this.

I suppose I’m as sad as the other fella, but there you go!

Still as they say in Cork “What Harm”

peace.
