| As the sun takes the city
|
| On the island of the rose
|
| It’s not London calling me
|
| It’s my heart back home
|
| Oh, she waits for me in the rain outside
|
| As I patiently try to pass the time
|
| Oh, I had my fun in the smoke and clouds
|
| But the day is done, now all I want is to get out 'cause it’s been
|
| Days, weeks, no light in this square mile
|
| Her face, my mind, just one more twilight
|
| One sunset left in England
|
| So go on then, trouble
|
| One sunset 'til I see her
|
| In her red sundress
|
| So I’ll have a smoke and I’ll fix a drink
|
| Then I’ll blow a kiss to the bloody queen
|
| Oh, my love, she waits, so long overdue
|
| One more sun to set, then I’ll cross the sea to you
|
| It’s been two weeks in the rain
|
| And it’s hazy in my head
|
| One more sunset in this place
|
| 'Til I see her again
|
| Well she waits for me in the rain outside
|
| As I patiently try to pass the time
|
| Oh, I had my fun in the smoke and clouds
|
| But the day is done, now all I want is to get out 'cause it’s been
|
| Days, weeks, no light in this square mile
|
| Her face, my mind, just one more twilight
|
| One sunset left in England
|
| So go on then, trouble
|
| One sunset 'til I see her
|
| In her red sundress
|
| So I’ll have a smoke and I’ll fix a drink
|
| Then I’ll blow a kiss to the bloody queen
|
| Oh, my love, she waits, so long overdue
|
| One more sun to set, then I’ll cross the sea to you
|
| (Cross the sea to you)
|
| Let it fade
|
| Let it fade away, away
|
| Let it fade
|
| Let it fade
|
| So I’ll have a smoke and I’ll fix a drink
|
| Then I’ll blow a kiss to the bloody queen
|
| Oh, my love, she waits, so long overdue
|
| One more sun to set, then I’ll cross the sea to you |
