I wrote you a letter,
Couldn't spell out your name
The call of the wild
Says our youth was to blame
Hold dreams of a sweet life,
No ghosts in the town
The silver in your eyes
Is bringing me down.
Chorus:
And if we play this right, we can take the world
But I left my heart in London.
If we play this right we can take the world
But I left my heart in London.
With the girl in the golden city
Let it burn in the golden city!
It's getting harder for me now
To juggle everything
The pressure is building,
Bubbling, boiling, it's under my skin
A million believers,
But this song is for you
I know we can make it,
Coasting into the blue
Chorus:
And if we play this right, we can take the world
But I left my heart in London.
If we play this right we can take the world
But I left my heart in London.
With the girl in the golden city
Let it burn in the golden city!
Just a girl in the golden city
In the dawn of the golden city
