Lyrics

Yeah, truth story.

As a boy I would venture out into the city
With not much money in my pocket I had
With a mind full of dreams I'd be walking
Amongst the busy streets of London town

And how those streets they change from morning to evening
When the suits and shirts they fade out
When the sun goes down and the lights turn up in the city
That's when I know I'm in London town

City, this is a city, this is a city, oh wow
City, see I'm in a city on my own

There's a man on the corner selling me flowers
And I told him that I'm too young to love
Then he said have I no love for my mother
Or have enough work for my father too
We got one life to live
Cause I know that it's worth it
Let's not get lost in it
I don't play to lose
City, this is a city, this is a city, oh wow
City, see I'm in a city on my own

Walking in the city of London
It's cold but I really don't mind it
Gotta get home but I don't wanna take the stairs
One road just leads to another
Five missed calls coming from my father
And I can't wait to come again, yeah
City, see I'm in a city on my own
City, this is a city, this is a city, oh wow
City, I'm in a city on my own
