so long, london boy

He said he loves my accent, the way I talk,
Like I'm some novelty, a city girl in his world.
Walking Camden Market, the lights so bright,
But there's a clock ticking, we're running out of night.

'Cause it's time to say goodbye, though I wish to stay,
London has my heart, but it can't make him stay.
Every corner's got a memory, every street a tale,
But the plane is waiting, and so I must set sail.

So long, London, you've been so good to me,
With your rainy days and your nights so free.
London boy, I’ll miss your laughter and charm,
But I can't keep holding on, I must move on.

From Hyde Park mornings to the Thames at dusk,
Every moment’s precious, but we lost our trust.
He’s a London boy with a heart so wild,
But my dreams are calling, and they can’t be filed.

'Cause it's time to say goodbye, though I wish to stay,
London has my heart, but it can't make him stay.
Every corner's got a memory, every street a tale,
But the plane is waiting, and so I must set sail.

So long, London, you've been so good to me,
With your rainy days and your nights so free.
London boy, I’ll miss your laughter and charm,
But I can't keep holding on, I must move on.

I'll take with me the moments, the laughter, the tea
