So this is London
We get up each day and walk out
Wonder where life will take us now
So this is London
On an island, in the ocean
where i thought that i might hide
in the middle of a crowd that clung to the other side
I heard the sound of running water
and turned to face your eyes
they were gray against the sky that day
and like the sky they took my breath away
So this is London
We get up each day and walk out
Wonder where life will take us now
So this is London
From the top of the rock
to the bottom of the channel
we were careless in our ignorance and we went astray
but all the lights and industry
they worked to bring us near
to the center of an elemental truth
it happened, and we're here

Part of you reflected in a light's ray
While crowds of you are marching down hallways
Unlucky few follow you always
Easy to lose yourself
As each day knows
I chose not to play it rough
And soon enough was enough
If the new you is for real
New you: there's no deal
'cause I was never in love
Too removed, out in your own space
Nothing moves over your whole face
Tried to work, going at your pace
Drained the light from the color
Until only gray showed

slow down, find out
my heart belongs to another now
and all along as I held you
I think it helped me that I knew
I think it helped me to tell you
To tell you everything was true
I did it all, I'd do it again
I wasn't born to be a pretender
now you know, we both can feel better
now you know [I'd do it again]
I did it all, I'd do it again
I wasn't born to be a dead-ender
now I know, to fate I surrender
now I know [I'll do it again]
slow down, dream now
of all the days, the moments and the hours
and say 'I'll stay til the end love'
but when the push came to that shove
I might let everything falter
and another i would be free of
I did it all, I'd do it again
I wasn't born to be a pretender
now I know, no more to remember
now I know [I'd do it again]
I did it all, I'd do it again
I wasn't born to be a repenter
Now you know the edge is my center
Now you know [I'll do it again]

All we need are
Good thoughts, good words, good deeds
And when things don't go your way
life has a way of coming back around
So, think of others
Be brave, be giving, love
Be your best you all the time
All we need are
Good thoughts, good words, good deeds
Give without the thought of me
Karma loves the best in all you do
So, think of loving
Be good, be kind, love
Be the light in someone's life
All we need are
Good thoughts, good words, good deeds

Caring is my sword and my shield
Where there's lambs in the field
There's a mother nearby
I love others to love myself
I won't run from a cry for help
This is how I renew my heart
This is who I am
Caring is like sun through the clouds
Neither humble nor proud
It's the promise of light
When my heart wants to hide in pain
I'll run out in the pouring rain
Tis is how I renew my soul
And this is who I am
It began on the day I was born
And it's the only relief from the storm
This is how I renew my love
This is who I am

web of yesterdays

fell asleep
in the shadows
dreamt my way
across the sky
waking up
to tomorrow
waking up
in a web of yesterdays, but why?
do you only show your face
in disguise?
and then turn away as soon as, almost, I...
tired arms
on the table
tired hands
on my chin
but my heart
wild and angry
yes my heart
will thrash that web of yesterdays, and why?
'cause if you're gonna show your face
then show both sides
before you turn away as soon as, almost, I...
