Oh the lights outside they’re as bright as the sun They’re much brighter than anyone Oh the girls in the queue yes they’re waiting for you well they’re waiting for the song to be sung
And when the night turns to day and all the people go away it’s not the same Tell me who’s to blame And when the stars shine so bright on a cold December night I wish that I was on the stage
Oh won’t you take a ride with me through the barrowland, our history, and I’ll sing you a song or two People they may stop and stare but baby I just don’t care Its all I need, and knew And they’ll drink and dance and don’t you know its all part of the show We’re going to maybe have to tell you The people they may stop and stare but baby I just don’t care But tonight, it’s only me and you
Oh nothing beats the feeling of the high barrowland ceiling When the band starts to play Won’t you buy me a drink and I’ll tell her what I think If she gets in my way
And when the night turns to day and all the people go away it’s not the same Tell me who’s to blame And when the stars shine so bright on a cold December night I wish that I was on the stage
Oh won’t you take a ride with me through the barrowland, our history, and I’ll sing you a song or two People they may stop and stare but baby I just don’t care Its all I need, and knew And they’ll drink and dance and don’t you know its all part of the show Were going to to maybe have to tell you The people they may stop and stare but baby I just don’t care But tonight, its only me and you
and when the night turns to day and the lights they fade away (I wish that life and love would pass me by) And when the band starts a song because there’s something going on (well there is magic in the air I swear) And I wish that I saw Bowie playing on that stage I wish that I saw something to make me come of age
Oh won’t you take a ride with me through the barrowland, our history, and I’ll sing you a song or two People they may stop and stare but baby I just don’t care It’s all I need, and knew And they’ll drink and dance and don’t you know its all part of the show We’re going to maybe have to tell you The people they may stop and stare but baby I just don’t care But tonight, its only me and you
