[Verse 1]
Take me away from the city
And lead me to where I can be on my own
I wanted to see it and now that I have
I want to just 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 won't be the same
[Chorus]
I remember that summer in Dublin
And the Liffey as it stank like hell
And the young people walking on Grafton Street
And everyone looking so well
I was singing a song I heard somewherе
Called "Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgеts"
When my humming was smothered by a 46A
And the scream of a low-flying jet
So, I jumped on a bus to Dún Laoghaire
Stopping off to pick up my guitar
And 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
Where open roads always are near
And If sometimes if I tire of the quiet
And I wanna walk back up that hill
I’ll just get on the road and I stick out my thumb
And I know for sure that you'll be there still
Take me away from the city
And lead me to where I can be on my own
I wanted to see it and now that I have
I want to just 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 won't be the same
[Chorus]
I remember that summer in Dublin
And the Liffey as it stank like hell
And the young people walking on Grafton Street
And everyone looking so well
I was singing a song I heard somewherе
Called "Rock 'n' Roll Never Forgеts"
When my humming was smothered by a 46A
And the scream of a low-flying jet
So, I jumped on a bus to Dún Laoghaire
Stopping off to pick up my guitar
And a drunk on a bus told me how to get rich
I was glad we weren't going too far
[Verse 2]

Trying to find a place where I can hear
The wind and the birds and the sea on the rocks
Where open roads always are near
And If sometimes if I tire of the quiet
And I wanna walk back up that hill
I’ll just get on the road and I stick out my thumb
And I know for sure that you'll be there still
