Vanessa Carlton - London lyrics

Waste away the days Waiting on a new age But time betrays me And I get older one more year Walk London's windy streets Go anywhere but home 'Cause I'm looking for the secrets That only cobblestones hold Only the cobblestones know And I've never been so sure That after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never come You've got a knife-throwing kind of love But your silence cuts the deepest And I know I've made a mess of things And I'm sorry for all that Wish we could get the time back Because I've never been so sure That after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never come Wait for it Wait for it Now I'm staring at the sun As if there's a riddle I'm not in on 'Cause the wolves howl to the Moon And she never answers back No, she never answers back And after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never, never been so sure That after all these years, I'll never learn That heavenly creatures never come, oh Waste away the days Waiting on a new age
