On The Waterfront Lyrics by Anti-Nowhere League
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Put their slogans on the factory wall
The lights go down, darkness falls
On the waterfront

We appear from a world of cold and steel
Discarded by the industrial wheel
On the waterfront

But down the dockland late at night
The fires of London burn so bright
No one cares, or sheds a tear
For those who live through their nights of fear
On the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfront

They push us away, they close the door
In the part of the city that no-one saw
On the waterfront

And so we move like ghosts through a timeless zone
Through the midst of the river we call our home
On the waterfront

But down the dockland late at night
The fires of London burn so bright
No one cares, or sheds a tear
For those who live through their nights of fear
On the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfront

On the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfront

We appear from a world of cold and steel
Discarded by the industrial wheel
And no one cares, or sheds a tear
For those who live through their nights of fear
On the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfront

On the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfront
Put their slogans on the factory wall   The lights go down, darkness falls   On the waterfront      We appear from a world of cold and steel   Discarded by the industrial wheel   On the waterfront      But down the dockland late at night   The fires of London burn so bright   No one cares, or sheds a tear   For those who live through their nights of fear   On the waterfront   We live together   On the waterfront   We stay forever   On the waterfront      They push us away, they close the door   In the part of the city that no-one saw   On the waterfront      And so we move like ghosts through a timeless zone   Through the midst of the river we call our home   On the waterfront      But down the dockland late at night   The fires of London burn so bright   No one cares, or sheds a tear   For those who live through their nights of fear   On the waterfront   We live together   On the waterfront   We stay forever   On the waterfront      On the waterfront   We live together   On the waterfront   We stay forever   On the waterfront      We appear from a world of cold and steel   Discarded by the industrial wheel   And no one cares, or sheds a tear   For those who live through their nights of fear   On the waterfront   We live together   On the waterfront   We stay forever   On the waterfront      On the waterfront   We live together   On the waterfront   We stay forever   On the waterfront
