Rainy Rebel Hearts

Wandering down these cobbled streets Where the rain never seems to quit Faded posters on the walls Echoes of the nights we lit Buses rumble through the fog Chasing shadows of what we had In this city that chews you up We're just lads trying not to crack

But the fire's still burning low In the smoke-filled rooms we know

Oh, we raise our glasses high To the rebel hearts that never die Through the storm and the fight We'll dance into the night No surrender, no goodbye We're alive in the Britpop sky

Pub lights flicker like old stars Stories told in pints and scars Lost loves in the autumn chill But we laugh it off with a thrill Motorway dreams pull us away From the factories and the grey Yet we carry the spark inside In this mad, beautiful ride

And the rhythm calls us back To the beat that keeps us intact

Oh, we raise our glasses high To the rebel hearts that never die Through the storm and the fight We'll dance into the night No surrender, no goodbye We're alive in the Britpop sky

And when the doubts come creeping in Whispering what might have been We stand together, unafraid In the rain, our colors fade But rise again, yeah, we ignite

Oh, we raise our glasses high To the rebel hearts that never die Through the storm and the fight We'll dance into the night No surrender, no goodbye We're alive in the Britpop sky

Rebel hearts

, never die

In the sky

, we're flying high
