Phil Coulter - Summer In Dublin lyrics

[Verse 1] Take me away from the city And leave me to where I can be on my own I wanted to see you and now that I have I just wanna be left alone I'll always remember your kind words And I'll still remember your name But I've seen you changing and turning And I know that things just won't be the same [Chorus] I remember that summer in Dublin And the Liffey as it stank like hell And young people walking down Grafton Street Everyone looking so well I was singing a song I heard somewhere Called "Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgets" When my humming was smothered by the 46A And the scream of a low flying jet So, I jumped on a bus to Dun Laoghaire Stopping off to pick up my guitar When a drunk on a bus told me how to get rich I was glad we weren't going too far [Verse 2] So, I'm leaving on Wednesday morning Trying to find a place where I can hear The wind and the birds and the sea on the rocks And where open roads are always out there And sometimes if I tire of the quiet And I wanna walk back up that hill I just get on the road and I stick out my thumb Cause I know for sure that you'll be there still [Chorus] I remember that summer in Dublin And the Liffey as it stank like hell And young people walking down Grafton Street Everyone looking so well I was singing a song I heard somewhere Called "Rock'n'Roll Never Forgets" When my humming was smothered by the 46A And the scream of a low flying jet So, I jumped on a bus to Dun Laoghaire Stopping off to pick up my guitar When a drunk on a bus told me how to get rich I was glad we weren't going too far [Chorus] I remember that summer in Dublin And the Liffey as it stank like hell And young people walking down Grafton Street Everyone looking so well I was singing a song I heard somewhere Called "Rock'n'Roll Never Forgets" When my humming was smothered by the 46A And the scream of a low flying jet So, I jumped on a bus to Dun Laoghaire Stopping off to pick up my guitar When a drunk on a bus told me how to get rich I was glad we weren't going too far [Outro] I remember that summer in Dublin I can still see that sunshine in Dublin
