|
Was there in your cage |
|
When your lion got tamed |
|
Was up on your stage |
|
When your childhood flamed |
|
The sorrow and rage |
|
But it ain't no game |
|
To me now |
|
All the lights in London shining now |
|
Slow ye down and stay awhile |
|
All the lights in London shining now |
|
Standing in line |
|
With these abstract gifts |
|
Counting the time |
|
As the dragnet shifts |
|
A quarter to nine |
|
and the gray cloud lifts |
|
Away now |
|
All the lights in London shining now |
|
Slow ye down and stay awhile |
|
All the lights in London falling down |
|
Hearing you say |
|
With your perspect's tongue |
|
Walking the way |
|
Where the dreams get flung |
|
Was never your thing |
|
When it all goes wrong |
|
To worry |
|
Whoa-oa |
|
All the lights in London shining now |
|
Slow ye down and stay awhile |
|
All the lights in London shining now |
|
Interlude |
|
Telling a lie |
|
Cause the truth just stinks |
|
Out in the mud |
|
Where the lightning sinks |
|
Wishing you could |
|
As the strip light blinks |
|
Away now |
|
Whoa-oa |
|
All the lights in London shining now |
|
Slow ye down and stay awhile |
|
All the lights in London falling down |
|
All of London falling down |
|
All of London falling down |
|
All of London |
