Barry Manilow - London lyrics

Traffic squeals

The city feels...so old

Late December

Taxi ride

Then run inside

It's cold

Got your letter 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

Learning the accent

Learnin' to love you

London

We were young

We we 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

Reading the times

On Saturday picnics

London

Counting the 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
