lyrics
High above London I got to thinking
You are not coming - not coming around
It is so pretty here, I don't want to leave
And I don't want to leave you but I can't stand my ground
Nothing like an afternoon at St Paul's to make me less dreary
Nothing like a little London fog to help me see clearly
In Trafalgar Square I will learn not to care
I can get better up in a double decker
When we've reached Piccadilly I'll have stopped being silly
And I'll have realized I must let you go
Though why I may never know
Caught in the rain walking next to the Thames
Has got me confessing you do not want me
As the rain washes over me will it wash you out of me
Or will I still struggle after crossing the sea
I kinda wanna climb this little wall and jump right in
I know it might be quite a fall but i know how to swim
In Trafalgar Square I will learn not to care
I can get better up in a double decker
When we've reached Piccadilly I'll have stopped being silly
And I'll have realized I must let you go
Though why I may never know
Yeah in Trafalgar Square I will learn not to care
And I swear I'll get better up in a double decker
When we've reached Piccadilly I'll have stopped being silly
And I'll have realized I must let you go
You don't tell me why you just don't show
I was fooled into loving but now I'm letting go
Though why I may never know
You are not coming - not coming around
It is so pretty here, I don't want to leave
And I don't want to leave you but I can't stand my ground
Nothing like an afternoon at St Paul's to make me less dreary
Nothing like a little London fog to help me see clearly
In Trafalgar Square I will learn not to care
I can get better up in a double decker
When we've reached Piccadilly I'll have stopped being silly
And I'll have realized I must let you go
Though why I may never know
Caught in the rain walking next to the Thames
Has got me confessing you do not want me
As the rain washes over me will it wash you out of me
Or will I still struggle after crossing the sea
I kinda wanna climb this little wall and jump right in
I know it might be quite a fall but i know how to swim
In Trafalgar Square I will learn not to care
I can get better up in a double decker
When we've reached Piccadilly I'll have stopped being silly
And I'll have realized I must let you go
Though why I may never know
Yeah in Trafalgar Square I will learn not to care
And I swear I'll get better up in a double decker
When we've reached Piccadilly I'll have stopped being silly
And I'll have realized I must let you go
You don't tell me why you just don't show
I was fooled into loving but now I'm letting go
Though why I may never know
