All the umbrellas in London
Couldn't hide my love for you
All the rain on Thamesside
Couldn't stop shining through
I dreamt of you last night
Lying next to me in blue
All the umbrellas in London
Couldn't hide my love for you
Run to the window and call out my name
We'll meet where the sun goes to hide from the rain
From the rain, from the rain
All the umbrellas in London
Couldn't hide my love for you
When everyone else is hiding
Rainy Sundays drunk at two
You'll whisper sweet lies to me
And one of them will be true
All the umbrellas in London
Couldn't hide my love for you
The gloom of the city at evening is still
You whisper come to me
And I always will
Always will, always will
All the rain in this town
And still the sky is blue
Saint James Square is teeming with doves
And that sunset they flew
Across the darkening city
To an attic room for two
All the umbrellas in London
Couldn't hide my love for you
I counted all the lights
They don't shine as bright
They don't pierce the night like you do
Like you do, like you do
Like you do, like you do
