Lyrics

Dear London

Dear London, I love you
But feel unwelcome when I stay
I head over too eager
Thinking it all will be okay
Dear London, I love you
But fucking love got in my way
Now I've been misleaded
By the city that I thought I needed

I don't really understand
What I have set myself up for
I really did make my own mistakes
It's too late I'm in hell but I'll stay

I'll stay
I'm in hell but I'll stay
Yeah I'll stay
I'm in hell but I'll stay

Dear London, I love you
But please don't think it's you I blame
It's not even your weather
Wherever I go it seems to rain
Dear London, I love you
But I've got love stuck in my brain
At least we're together
And you're not leaving for somebody better

I don't really understand
What I have set myself up for
I did really make my own mistakes
It's too late I'm in hell but I'll stay

I'll stay
I'm in hell but I'll stay
Yeah I'll stay
I'm in hell but I'll stay

Yeah I'll stay
I'm in hell but I'll stay

Yeah I'll stay

I get nothing for the love I'm giving
But I can't leave this town
I was flying over here believing
You wouldn't burn it down
But now that I fell into London
And you're lost in the grey
I'm not going anywhere else for today
I'm in hell but I'll stay

Yeah I'll stay
Yeah I'm in hell but I'll stay
I'll stay
Yeah I'm in hell but I'll stay
I'll stay
Yeah I'm in hell but I'll stay
I'll stay
Yeah I'm in hell but I'll stay
