London

[Intro]

Oh, how I wish I could drag you down here

Pull these feet far from the ground

Because this, this city ain't no friend of mine

Ain't no friend

[Verse 1]

All I can do

When the tracks stop at the final destination

Is just push on through

The weariness and silences of such a crowded situation here

All I can do

When every brick, every bar, every elegance I see

I see her face

Is just push on, just push on through

These embers are memories that float from the fire

From the fire of this place

[Refrain]

So don't give up on me now

Oh these legs that'll walk me home

Because it's only concrete and cars oh

It's only sirens and missing stars

It's only whiskey and disregard

In the smallest hours here, when I feel alone

[Verse 2]

All I can do

When these lights

They haunt me like orchids in a graveyard here

Is just push on, just push on through

These faces of dust and stone

The dirt and bone of loss

Loss is here

Oh we're lost here

[Refrain]

So don't give up on me now

Oh these legs that'll walk me home

Because it's only concrete and cars oh

It's only sirens and missing stars

Oh it's only whiskey and disregard

In the smallest hours here, when I feel alone

[Outro]

And I hope Paris is as beautiful as I've been told

And that everything you do is galvanised in gold
