little london night

a gift from a friend who just got back from london a couple of weeks ago.


Little London night
Shiny pavement
Yellow, red and white
Oh that I have seen this
The women and the men
A theatre so thin and
Danced to death
When do they know they mean it?

A grey light in an English Room
My head so full of missing you
You, my lover you.
My lover -
Say you know

oh when we are young
no night's too long
the boys all think they need it
and then it's time to leave
the starlight on the stones under our feet
did i count to ten or dream it?

A grey light in an English Room
My head so full of missing you
You, my lover you.
My lover, oh - say you know
Say you know
Say -
You know

now my black lungs are blue but i'm still singing to you

no pictures today. though I went to many shows. Mostly Ryan's.
Last Ryan's show I didn't record or take pictures, since it was like my 6th show since March. But it seems like every show is memorable.

for example, last night:
- ryan covered a 50 cent song during the bridge of his own song, Sink or Swim, on the piano no less. It was very romantic. (I almost thought he was going to do "don't phunk with my heart" like last time)
- ryan shared his scaring (but funny) childhood memory
- ryan debuted "dance with you"
- after the show, we all randomly got into a limo parked on street and sang along to ryan's "take a ride with me" blasting in the background while the limo drove around the block. Not my idea.
