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
