Lyrics
Dad, tell me why the red flag flies,
Why you smile with shining eyes.
You held my hand on matchday morning,
Through the turnstiles, scarves held high.
You showed me songs your father taught you,
And the names that never die.
I was small beneath the rafters,
But I knew the words by heart;
Every time the crowd stood singing,
I felt I was part.
You were there before the first kick,
You’ll be there when years have flown.
Little one, this song is yours now—
You will never stand alone.
[Chorus: Father and daughter duet, growing Celtic folk-rock]
[Child] I’m my father’s little daughter,
[Father] You’re the joy I’ll always know.
[Both] We’ll sing for Liverpool together,
Wherever red winds blow.
Through the long nights, through the glory,
Hand in hand, our voices strong;
You gave me more than just a team, Dad—
You gave me this song.
[Father] When the rain comes down in torrents,
[Child] I will keep my scarf held tight.
[Father] When the whole old stand is singing,
[Child] I’ll be singing by your side.
[Father] Every season has its story,
[Child] Every song belongs to us.
[Both] In a thousand hearts together,
There’s a red that will not rust.
[Father] You were there before the first kick,
[Child] I’ll be there when years have flown.
[Both] Little one, this song is ours now—
We will never stand alone.
[Child] I’m my father’s little daughter,
[Father] You’re the joy I’ll always know.
[Both] We’ll sing for Liverpool together,
Wherever red winds blow.
Through the long nights, through the glory,
Hand in hand, our voices strong;
You gave me more than just a team, Dad—
You gave me this song.
[Child] One day I’ll bring my own wee girl,
[Father] And you’ll teach her what I’ve shown.
[Both] The songs we share keep growing,
And no heart sings alone.
[Final Chorus: Full Celtic folk-rock, triumphant duet and crowd]
[Child] I’m my father’s little daughter,
[Father] You’re the joy I’ll always know.
[Both] We’ll sing for Liverpool together,
Wherever red winds blow.
Through the long nights, through the glory,
Hand in hand, our voices strong;
You gave me more than just a team, Dad—
You gave me this song.
[Child] Dad, tell me why the red flag flies?
[Father] Because you’re here beside me.
[Both] And we’ll sing it all our lives.
