Sometimes I just close my eyes to help distort the view
Rainy days are all I need to keep me missing you
And I wish that it were easier to say to you goodnight
If I shut my eyes too long I might forget to write
Either way we go I feel us drifting out to sea
I wish that you were by my side things happen differently
Oh London never let the sunlight set upon your empire
Remember I was yours and you were mine for just a little while
If maybe someday we can meet out of the blue
Our tears would dry and we can clear our field of view
Maybe in time you'll just be another memory that makes me smile
Till then it's been worthwhile
Waking by cathedrals playing on our love for Sartre
Don't want our love to fade to misery instead of art
Oh London never let the sunlight set upon your empire
Remember I was yours and you were mine for just a little while
If maybe someday we can meet out of the blue
Our tears would dry and we can clear our field of view
Maybe in time you'll just be another memory that makes me smile
Till then it's been worthwhile
