Goodnight London

Fell in love with the night time
She took me by surprise
She had to turn the lights off
To look me in the eyes

New york is winking at me
He thinks I need a change
So I go out and walk around
In the early morning rain

To the sound of prowling cars
And the sweepin' of broken glass
Another midnight comes
By the silent underpass

And every girl I've ever loved
And every boy I've ever loved
And every girl I've ever loved
And every boy I've ever loved
Close their eyes
And say goodnight London
Goodnight London
Goodnight London
Goodnight London

Even the ghosts must lay down their hands
Just to stare into the gloom
To open up to understand under the crying moon
I'm singin' for all the south land
So they can really scream
I'm singing for the dreamer
Sleepless with their dreams

And every girl I've ever loved
And every boy I've ever loved
And every girl I've ever loved
And every boy I've ever loved
Will close their eyes
And sing goodnight London
Goodnight London
Goodnight London
Goodnight London
