I leave a bedroom   still littered by you   I take the train   into this city      A broken heart is easily lost   amongst the crush,   amongst the rush    on the underground      Carried by the moving stairs   There's no need to hurry   when you're going    nowhere.      He gave me the capacity to love   and left as I was filling up   So I turn to you my old friend and say      Take me in your arms.   Wrap your roads around me   Nuzzle me with your crowds   and let the quick warmth of commerce immerse me   Because London, you owe me this much      In the bars and cafes   I waste away the day   The pictures in galleries   give my thoughts a place to nap in      I retire into cinemas   Student passes,    eccentric bastards   escapees from the 9 to 5      Deeper into Hyde Park   I muddle   where the Grannies huddle   Pigeons around my feet      He gave me the capacity to love   and left as I was filling up   So I turn to you my old friend and say      Take me in your arms.   Wrap your roads around me   Nuzzle me with your crowds   and let the warmth of commerce immerse me   Because London, you owe me this much
