If I was a Londoner, rich with complaint   Would you take me back to your house   Which is sainted with lust and the listless shade   If I could have held you once more with that light   It's nothing to you, but it keeps me alive   Like a Valentine's Day, it's a Valentine's heart, anyway      The king and the ages, they fall by the plan   It's always the tired and the ordinary man   (It's the) challenge it's funny and such   I want to see you again   I want to see you again   It's so simple and plain   But I'll come back and see you again      The lie is the angel, it doesn't exist   I tell you it's funny but you like just to twist all my words   It's a shame you're so young   My word, it's a shame I'm so dumb   I figure a house with the smoke and the fence   The people round here would be pleased   Take my word on this      I would believe just in you, just believe in you   And five days to catch me around with my ring   As I visit the friendships which meant everything to the girl   With the clown's face, to the girl with the clowns face, round here   Tanita Tikaram, vocals   Rod Argent, keyboards   Peter Van Hooke, drums   John Georgiadis, violin   Brendan O'Reilly, violin   Ian Jewel, viola   Keith Harvey, cello
