Tina Dickow - London (A Detour) lyrics

[Tina Dickow - London A Detour lyrics]

I'm flying over london on
A cold november night
The river snakes across the vast
Ocean of electric lights
Fast and weightless like this
Marvel in the sky
The young and restless skateboard in the
Dark beneath the closing london eye

I'm flying over london looking
Down at busy streets
I scout to find a few familiar
Places looking up at me
Seven years since I first stepped
Off of this plane
And still this city doesn't know my stories
My dreams or my first name

Someday I have to say goodbuy
Ti the city that showed me
Awoke me and broke me


Someday I have to say goodbuy to london
London

I press against the window
My forehead cold and numb
As I search through blurry memories to
Trace the woman I've become between stmark
Brick lane and eve's market cafe
I found my self in pieces
Took what I could carry and
I threw the rest away

I'm flying over london on
A cold november night
Unlit parks like bullet wounds in
The blanket of electric light
The city is a living creature all on it's own
And we all push like blood through it's veins
So close together, so alone

Someday I have to say goodbye
To the city that thrilled me and
Built me and killed me
Someday I have to say goodbye to london

Someday I have to say goodbye
To the city that moved me
And soothed me confused me
Someday I have to say goodbuy to london
London
