《This Is London》歌词

[00:00:00] This Is London - Don McGlashan

[00:00:02] The traffic has gone quiet

[00:00:09] Just the finger-tip drumming

[00:00:15] Of the last train on the hill

[00:00:22] Now only I can hear it coming

[00:00:29] And the moon is way up high

[00:00:36] Like a giant map-maker

[00:00:42] She paints the windows of our house

[00:00:49] With a yellow highlighter

[00:00:57] And a voice says

[00:00:58] This is London

[00:01:00] And I wait and count the beats

[00:01:03] And the night fills up the valley

[00:01:07] And the cleaners clean the streets

[00:01:10] And the words bounce off the satellites

[00:01:13] And they fall back down to earth

[00:01:17] Across miles and miles of ocean

[00:01:20] To the city of my birth

[00:01:29] And the inattentive drivers

[00:01:36] And the black ice on the bridges

[00:01:42] And the friends who break their promises

[00:01:49] And the comfortless strangers

[00:01:56] I can see them all a-circling

[00:02:03] Out there in the future

[00:02:10] But tonight they can't hurt you

[00:02:17] Tonight they don't matter

[00:02:23] And a voice says

[00:02:24] This is London

[00:02:27] And I wait and count the beats

[00:02:30] And the night fills up the valley

[00:02:34] And the cleaners clean the streets

[00:02:37] And the words bounce off the satellites

[00:02:40] And they fall back down to earth

[00:02:44] Across miles and miles of ocean

[00:02:47] To the city of my birth

[00:03:23] I know you are asleep now

[00:03:30] You've gone heavy on my shoulder

[00:03:37] I carry you to your bed

[00:03:43] Like a boat across the water

[00:03:50] And a voice says

[00:03:51] This is London

[00:03:54] And I wait and count the beats

[00:03:57] And the night fills up the valley

[00:04:01] And the cleaners clean the streets

[00:04:04] And the words bounce off the satellites

[00:04:07] And they fall back down to earth

[00:04:11] Across miles and miles of ocean

[00:04:14] To the city of my birth

[00:04:18] And a voice says

[00:04:25] This is London

[00:04:30] The words bounce off

[00:04:33] And the words bounce off satellites

[00:04:39] And they fall back down to earth
