There's no more trains going that way There's no more trains coming this way You better make your way home, son There's something going down in London Well, that ain't gonna stop me So I step out the station and what do I see? Traffic for days Let me walk a bit and I'll see where it get me Then it all went slow motion, everything slow motion First came the flash of lights then the sound of explosion And we're still in slow motion, we're still in slow motion On these streets where I played And these trains that I take, I saw fire But now I've seen the city change in Oh, so many ways, since the days of fire Since the days of fire Now I'm on the train, going that way There were too many people coming this way Delayed trains, delayed trains Didn't plan for d**h on the subway So I step out the station Brazilian name all over TV Realization, I was on the next train Could've been me Then it all went slow motion, everything slow motion First the flash of light then the rise of emotion And I'm still in slow motion, I'm still in slow motion On these streets where I played And these trains that I take, I saw fire But now I've seen the city change in Oh, so many ways, since the days of fire Since the days of fire One day going that way, one day going this way Those summer days, that crazy phase Like a jack-knifed car on the highway Just two mad situations Fire on the news, fire on TV A bus, a train station The crossfire sights of destiny Now it's all gone slow motion, everything slow motion The lights gone out, I feel no more emotion I'm all out of emotion, I'm out of emotion On these streets where I played And these trains that I take, I saw fire But now I've seen the city change in Oh, so many ways, since the days of fire Since the days of fire
