Corrected lyrics

1962
(Ron Hynes)

I dreamed it was 1962
I dropped a quarter in a juke box
Played a song for you
Kissed you by the Pinball King
Listenin' to Del Shannon sing
And I had all his records
He was my favourite then

And that's all gone
It won't come back again
That's all gone
It won't come back again

And I woke and I put on my father's shoes
Stood out in the front yard like he used to do
Stepped across the morning sand
The skyline only showed a sign of rain
And mine would be the only footprints that remained

That's all gone
It won't come back again
That's all gone
It won't come back again

There was something I meant to say
yah, yah
But too many words got in the way
yeah, yeah

And I dreamed it was 1962
I lit a fire on the beach
I lay in the sand with you
And sang songs 'til the rain would come
Straight across the fields we'd run
You wrapped a sweater 'round my first guitar
I walked you home

That's all gone
It won't come back again
That's all gone
It won't come back again

There was something I meant to say
yah, yah
But too many words got in the way
yeah, yeah
(key change)
yeah, yeah

I dreamed it was 1962
Dropped a quarter in a juke box
Played a song for you
Kissed you by the Pinball King
Listenin' to Del Shannon sing
And I had all his records
He was my favourite then - him and Brian Wilson

That's all gone
It won't come back again
That's all gone
It won't come back again

Hoo ah hoo
Hoo ah hoo
Hoo hoo (falsetto)
