Small World

I sat and watched the crowds in London

I know each road by name

Today the streets are cold and empty

Cos no one likes the rain

I soon lost count of all the cars

That burned so bright outside the bars

Deserted streets, and burning shells

Familiar shops I know so well

Today the birds no longer twitter

The words don't make it true

When there's no line I'm up the junction

I can't be there with you

I've always got a magic line

That I tap into any time

I watch the world by day and night

It's very close, but out of sight

Small world

Spent together

Spent in wonder

Linked forever

The words were out, and spread like fires

From good to bad, habitual liars

The drama queens rejoice again

Until the next time, who knows when?

We could be miles apart forever

But we are somehow here together

The world is always talking somewhere

And we can choose or not to be there

Small world

Spent together

Spent in wonder

Linked forever

Small world

Spent together

Spent in wonder

Linked forever

And we can choose or not to be there
