London |
I’m flying over London on a cold November night |
The river snakes across the vast ocean of electric lights |
Fast and weightless like this marvel in the sky |
The young and restless skateboard in the dark |
Beneath the closing London Eye |
I’m flying over London looking down at busy streets |
I scout to find a few familiar places looking up at me |
Seven years since I first stepped off of this plane |
But still this city doesn’t know my stories or my dreams or my first name |
Someday I’ll have to say goodbye |
To the city that showed me and woke me and broke me |
Someday I’ll have to say goodbye to London |
Yeah, London |
I press against the window my forehead cold and numb |
As I search through blurry memories to trace the woman I’ve become |
Between St Margaret Lane and Eve’s Market Cafe |
I found myself in pieces, took what I could carry and I threw the rest away |
I’m flying over London on a cold November night |
Unlit paths like bullet wounds in the blanket of electric lights |
The city is a living creature all on its own |
And we all push like blood through its veins so close together, so alone |
Someday I’ll have to say goodbye |
To the city that thrilled me and built me and killed me |
Someday I’ll have to say goodbye to London |
Someday I’ll have to say goodbye |
To the city that moved me and soothed me, confused me |
Someday I’ll have to say goodbye to London |
Yeah, London |
