Lyrics

(Verse 1)
The world was watching, under the summer sky,
Stoichkov leading, the dream was flying high,
From Sofia to Brisbane, the echoes reached our door,
We found our friendship in the summer of ’94.

(Pre-Chorus)
Lechkov’s header, Balakov’s fire,
Mihailov’s saves taking us higher,
Names we carried, proud and strong,
We wrote our story in a victory song.

(Chorus)
Oh, summer of ’94, we were young and free,
In the schoolyard lights, you stood by me,
Michael, Velev, Sukov, brothers evermore,
We wore our names like heroes, in the summer of ’94.

(Verse 2)
In the hallways laughing, on the bus ride home,
New names were given, like medals of our own,
Australian hearts with a Bulgarian flame,
Bound together by a victory’s name.

(Pre-Chorus)
Stoichkov shining, history made,
With every goal, a memory stayed,
On those schoolyard fields, we believed once more,
That friendship’s stronger than the final score.

(Chorus)
Oh, summer of ’94, we were young and free,
In the schoolyard lights, you stood by me,
Michael, Velev, Sukov, brothers evermore,
We wore our names like heroes, in the summer of ’94.

(Bridge)
Years may pass, but the fire still burns,
Every corner of my heart, to those days it turns,
When a team and a dream opened every door,
And I found my brothers in ’94.

(Final Chorus)
Oh, summer of ’94, it was more than a game,
It gave us friendship, it gave us names,
Michael, Velev, Sukov — forever we swore,
We’d remember who we are, from the summer of ’94.
