Tina Dico London song lyrics

I'm flying over London on a cold November night

The river snakes across the vast ocean of electric lights

Fast and weightless like this marvel in the sky

The young and restless skateboard in the dark beneath the closing London Eye

Yeah I'm flying over London looking down at busy streets

I scout to find a few familiar places looking up at me

Seven years since I first stepped off of this plane

But still this city doesn't know my stories or my dreams or my first name

Someday I'll have to say goodbye

To the city that showed me, awoke me and broke me

Someday I'll have to say goodbye

To London

Yeah, London

I press against the window my forehead cold and numb

As I search through blurry memories to trace the woman I've become

Between St Margaret Lane and Eve's Market Cafe

I found myself in pieces, took what I could carry and I threw the rest away

I'm flying over London on a cold November night

Unlit paths like bullet wounds in the blanket of electric lights

The city is a living creature all on its own

And we all push like blood through its veins

So close together. So alone.

Someday I'll have to say goodbye

To the city that thrilled me and built me and killed me and

Someday I'll have to say goodbye

To London

Someday I'll have to say goodbye

To the city that moved me and soothed me, confused me and

Someday I'll have to say goodbye

To London

Yeah, London
