London Town

I fell captive to your towers

Oh, London Town

Under the rain showers

You sunk me down

I might lose myself

Among the strangers

Forget my soul, lay it to rest

Astray, following lights of dangers

I’ve been around so many times

Ran in circles, through the circuses

A multitude of sound chimes

Ring in my ears, laughs and rictuses

I slumbered in parks of wild

Figuring out the whys of existence

Come again, drink the scenery, child

Whisper your name in the distance

I seemed lonely to all the faces

Embarking wagons, running from casualties

Of routinely trips to all places

All my eyes could see were anomalies

I felt safe within your streets

In my memory, music repeats

“Oh, London Town

Please, keep me around.”
