I see you standing there
With your dark hair falling around
Holding up my pretenses
I feel defenses fall down
E Everyone can see
The crumbling in me
Last time I walked these streets
The air was all cold
I had holes in my shoes
And an obligation to a role
To color in London
Let it take it's toll.

You give joy with the dances
And your knowing glances are mine
You give a hold on attention
And a full-blown suspension of time
Everyone could know
I just stumbled into this show
Now my ears are ringin'
As you're hanging up the phone
And all the lines have been singin'
With the way you make 'em your own
I'm flying into London
You made it feel like home.

Now we're done with working
And there's no-one lurking around
In our world I don't mind
Just how slowly time is unwound
Everyone else is outside
And I couldn't care less for the reasons why
Now there's kaleidoscopes
In the leaves falling in an empty lot
I'm flying on my feet
And the target don't judge the shot
Girl you gave me London
I'll give you all I've got
You gave me London
