《This Is London(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] This Is London (Album Version) - The Airborne Toxic Event

[00:00:15] This is London the place

[00:00:17] Where you're a god or a disgrace

[00:00:19] The whole wide world at your feet

[00:00:21] To see the look upon your face

[00:00:24] And you watch the BBC and you think

[00:00:27] "Well what if that was me "

[00:00:29] Such a promising life to waste

[00:00:36] You told me "Just be brave

[00:00:38] Remember all the gifts you gave

[00:00:40] And how you felt like you were saved

[00:00:42] Like you were singing from beyond the grave "

[00:00:44] And you said you'd wait for me

[00:00:47] Until the day I could sing on key

[00:00:50] "There's just something about your face "

[00:00:56] Then you'd call I could feel your body

[00:01:00] Fall down next to me

[00:01:04] I wanted us to be fast asleep

[00:01:08] Closer than anything to me

[00:01:11] Like we were home again

[00:01:27] There was just no way to know

[00:01:29] What was real and what was show

[00:01:31] A future unfolding before my eyes

[00:01:33] And a past that I could not let go

[00:01:36] And how the feeling is so deep

[00:01:38] When you're running down the London streets

[00:01:41] Like there's nowhere left to go

[00:01:47] Among the faceless dizzy whores

[00:01:50] The unimaginable bores

[00:01:52] Evenings stumbling from the pub

[00:01:54] And mornings shivering on the floor

[00:01:57] And then the careless way you say

[00:01:59] "Yeah we were just glad we got to play "

[00:02:02] When you're empty to the core

[00:02:08] Then you'd call I could feel your body

[00:02:12] Fall down next to me

[00:02:16] I wanted us to be fast asleep

[00:02:20] Closer than anything to me

[00:02:23] Like we were home again

[00:02:28] I'm so tired of the rain

[00:02:55] This is London the place

[00:02:57] Where you get lost without a trace

[00:02:59] Among the beautiful remains

[00:03:01] Of this shattered human race

[00:03:03] And all the words that go unsaid

[00:03:06] All the sacrifices of the dead

[00:03:08] "We'll fall quietly into the past

[00:03:10] Or we'll just burn the streets instead"

[00:03:13] In the clamoring of the crowd

[00:03:15] You think "I'll just stay quiet instead "

[00:03:24] All the fallen dizzy angels crawling

[00:03:29] Through the street

[00:03:32] The pleas of people weary on their feet

[00:03:36] And you're half a world away from me

[00:03:39] As the clouds drown the light

[00:03:44] I wonder where you are tonight
