Sun dark on darker streets It's violent times for weary feet Carjackers and bullet showers A yellow sign, too many fools in power But see, I will be gone by morning My dear friend, I lost a fight Forget me, I wash my hands In your gray slowing night Coming down from darkened heights I taste the Thames with my cycle lights By saint Paul's by Big Ben By God's name I repent But see, I will be gone by morning My dear, London goodnight Forget me, I wash myself In your gray river light
