When The Lights Go Out In London - The Charlatans

For all of us the world is a hound

For all others there’s never a frown

To the leaders who try as they might

Dabble dabble here as high as the night

When the lights go out in London

The crowds will disappear

I’ll be there for your tomorrows tonight

I look into the eyes of a man in this barren land

I look to my sweet and say quietly

'Hold my hand'

In our hearts we

We know what we like in this battle scene

Please be sweet and be bright

When the lights go out in London

The crown will disappear

I’ll be there for your tomorrows tonight

I look into the eyes of a man in this barren land

I look to my sweet and say quietly

'Hold my hand'

For all of us the world is a hound

For all others there’s never a frown

To the leaders who try as they might

Hug me to sleep as I die in the night

When the lights go out in London

The crown will disappear

I’ll be there for your tomorrows tonight

I look into the eyes of a man in this barren land

I look to my sweet and say quietly

'Hold my hand'

Take my hand now

Take my hand now

Take my hand now

In this barren land
