Forever Blowing Bubbles
Forever blowing bubbles
my step it softens firmly
Firmly to the ground
'please mind the gap'
a tannoy over head
it sounds
people talking on the phone
children I hear screeching
trains thundering past
a religious preacher preaching
security watching passengers
ticket barriers beeping
the background sound
of the underground
a cleaner casually sweeping
exiting the crowded station
to the sound of beautiful music
a guitar, a blanket and a dog
a voice so therapeutic
my eyes are met with a sea of colour
the rich colour of claret and blue
supporters chanting 'IRONS
our passion so dedicated and true
we walk the long concrete path
that leads us to our home
the home of our club
the home of passion
our beautiful perfect dome
the smell of food stalls fills the air
excitement and nerves
as we venture near
entering the stadium
looking for our stand
seat numbers and tickets
still held in our hand
charged and nervous
and soaking in the atmosphere
butterflies whirling in your belly
settle that with a pint of beer
I'm forever blowing bubbles
ringing through the speakers
the fans roar loudly
we sing proudly
we're no glory seekers
our blood runs claret
our veins run blue
Westham United
through and through..
