Lyrics
London Comes Alive
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I was midnight walking
And daytime talking
You can see the best in me I know
I got distracted
You were broken hearted
But I still tried to follow where you'd go
And every time you wish me peace
Or take a joke with perfect ease
Or hear my doubts with sympathy
It's like London comes alive
We both know the river
Gets stronger and longer
And crossing it's the hardest thing to plan
You took us together
Sister and brother
And brought us safe ashore
Where we now stand
And even if you'd one regret
It couldnâ't spoil the best thing yet
Some special days our eyes have met
And it's like when London cameo alive
It's such a surprise
Any time you want, just say
Phone me up and I'll he there
What you need to hear I'll say
Anything
Cause every time you wish me peace
Or take a joke with perfect ease
I know you’re down on bended knee
Trying to make everything all right
Like when London comes alive
