Lights Of London Lyrics

Was there in your cage 

When your lion got tamed 

Was up on your stage 

When your childhood flamed 

The sorrow and rage 

But it aint no game 

To me now 

All the lights in London shining now 

Slow ye down and stay awhile 

All the lights in London shining now 

Standing in line 

With these abstract gifts 

Counting the time 

As the dragnet shifts 

A quarter to nine 

and the gray cloud lifts 

Away now 

All the lights in London shining now 

Slow ye down and stay awhile 

All the lights in London falling down 

Hearing you say 

With your perspect's tongue 

Walking the way 

Where the dreams get flung 

Was never your thing 

When it all goes wrong 

To worry 

Whoa-oa 

All the lights in London shining now 

Slow ye down and stay awhile 

All the lights in London shining now 

Interlude 

Telling a lie 

Cause the truth just stinks 

Out in the mud 

Where the lightning sinks 

Wishing you could 

As the strip light blinks 

Away now 

Whoa-oa 

All the lights in London shining now 

Slow ye down and stay awhile 

All the lights in London falling down 

All of London falling down 

All of London falling down 

All of London
