I was midnight walking and daytime talking You can see the best in me, I know I got distracted, you were broken hearted But I still tried to follow where you'd go And every time you wish me peace Or take a joke with perfect ease Or hear my doubts with sympathy It's like London comes alive We both know the river, gets stronger and longer And crossing it's the hardest thing to plan You took us together, sister and brother And brought us safe ashore, where we now stand Even if you'd one regret, it couldn't spoil the best thing yet Some special days, our eyes have met It's like when London comes alive It's such a surprise Any time you want, just say Phone me up and I'll be there What you need to hear, I'll say Anything Every time you wish me peace Or take a joke with perfect ease I know you're down on bended knee To make everything all right It's like when London comes alive, alive, alive
