lyrics

Going Back To Liverpool

Picture myself back in Lime Street Station
Catching the Number Nine Dream
Brian is there and the boys are waiting
Everything’s real now it seems
Climb in the van and say hi to Neil,
Mal’s changing the strings on the Gretsch
Head into town and it’s so surreal
John’s offering us cigarettes

I’m going back to Liverpool
I’m floating down the stream
I’m going back to Liverpool
If only in my dreams

Afternoon show and they pull a blinder
Get a shot of rhythm and blues
A guy in the crowd’s given George a shiner
Ringo can’t believe he was booed
John’s got a song that he needs help finishing
We’re having a crack in the Grapes
Paul is with Dot and I’m sitting there listening
Rounds of black velvet til late

I’m going back to Liverpool
I’m floating down the stream
I’m going back to Liverpool
If only in my dreams

Just like the moon and stars and sun
Their songs shine on and on and on

Back on the stage for the Cavern all-nighter
Lights are low the hi-fi is high
Thelma cooks scouse and the space grows tighter
Your feet’s too big and some other guy
Brought down to earth by the sound of laughter
Break is over back to the floor
Somebody calls, it’s another drama
Wish that I was born years before

I’m going back to Liverpool
I’m floating down the stream
I’m going back to Liverpool
If only in my dreams

I’m going back to Liverpool
Get back where I belong
I’m going back to Liverpool
I’d love to turn you on...
