This Is A London Song - The Union

English summer, pouring rain

Under the crown on a speeding train

Don’t talk to strangers or meet their eye

Suffer in silence may be define

Just another day, now

And the race is on

Everyone in a hurry, this is a London song

So long

East or West end

And way beyond

The highest rollers and the vagabonds

Culture’s car crash, stars collide

And the taxi driver the world writes

(Bridge)

If you’re looking for a free ride

Well, you won’t find one

Better bring your money

This is a London song

Guess it feels like home, like home, like home

The mighty river like a great divide

Keeps spare the country from the other side

Tower stretched up and touch the sky

In the city where the real of them try

There’s a color full of dreams, now

Washed away by dawn

Don’t be down, honey

This is a London song

Don’t be down, honey, no

Better bring your money
