Woke Up In London

Five in the morning, just before sunrise
We closed the door of our home in the dark
Oh Lord, would we ever come back
Shower of bullets all over the street
Raising the dust very close to our feet
Oh Lord, how did we survive

Made it cover under the trees
Hiked up a mountain finally free
Oh Yeah! Glad to be alive
Far from the war zone, laid down my head
Closing my eyes in my mother's embrace
Oh Yeah! Feeling so safe

Opened my eyes coming out of my dream
Checked my surroundings I couldn't believe
Oh Lord! How did I get here
Opened my eyes, still cloudy head
Looked all around me feeling my legs
Oh Lord, I'm finally here

I woke up in London, of all the places in the world
I woke up in London, I woke up at home
I woke up in London. There's no other
place I'd rather be
I woke up in London with you next to me

Looked out the window, the falling snow
Spent my first winter with no were to go
Oh Lord, how did I survive
Hot summer evenings, meeting new friends
Teenage euphoria, didn't want it to end
Oh Yeah! I was living the life
