Barry Manilow - London lyrics

rate me

New York winter Traffic squeals

The city feels...so old

Late December taxi ride

Then run inside it's cold

Got your letters Monday

I think or Tuesday

I lose track

since then I've been thinking of you

and I've been looking back to

London

Can you believe it's so many years since

London

Hitching a ride and carrying knapsacks

London

In the park by the Thames Drinking tea

London

sitting in pubs and living in walk-ups

London

Learnin' the accent learnin' to love you

London

We were young we were sure

We were... free

Was it really ages

Ago the memories Never fade

can you hear Big Ben where you are

and are you glad you stayed in

London

Dodging the rain with broken umbrellas

London

Readind the Times on saturday picnics

London

Counting stars ‘till the stars

All were gone

London

So many plans and nothing but time in

London

Nothing to fear 'cause nothing could last in

London

We grew close we grew scared

I moved on

Oh London

What were we scared of

Why did I run from London

Part of me still has

Never come back from London

Is it fair that I miss

You so much

Take good care all my love

Keep in touch

New York winter taxi ride

Then run inside it's cold
