Archway People

When you told me your dream

(When you told me your dream)

I wanted to cry

You almost looked happy

(You almost looked happy)

Please don't tell me it's true

All our neighbors are old

(All our neighbors are old)

Street-lamp buzzes all night

There are some nice parts of London

(There are some nice parts of London)

You can see them from here

(You can see them from here, you can see them from here)

You're not going to change

We're not moving away

We're staying here

(Staying here)

We're staying here

(Staying here)

We both work 'til late, catch the fifty-eight

Usually asleep by eleven

(Asleep by eleven)

But somehow it didn't seem right

When you turned and said

(When you turned and said)

"Let's go mad tonight"

So we drank and danced

(So we drank and danced)

For once I felt close to you

(For once I felt close to you, for once I felt close to you)

You're not going to change

We're not moving away

We're staying here

(Staying here)

We're staying here

(Staying here)

We're staying here

(Staying here)
