Walking in London like I did as a child I feel the cool air on the back of my neck I am passing through the neighbourhood where I grew up It doesn't feel like it used to Doesn't feel like it used to Did I try to control you? Yeah, I get lost in my own world So I go through all the words I ever said And it feels like the world is crashing down Let's light up the city Yeah, the buildings ain't so pretty Let's have the time of our lives We've never been closer than We've never been closer than now Closer than we ever dreamed of We've never been closer than now These are the days of excess You want the moon 'cause it's been calling you So let's light up the city The buildings ain't so pretty And we're having the time of our lives We've never been closer than We've never been closer than now Closer than we ever dreamed of We've never been closer than now We've never been closer than We've never been closer than now Closer than we ever dreamed of We've never been closer than now Walking through London like I did as a child Yeah, the spotlight can't keep up with us no more I feel the cool air on the back of my neck Yeah, it's you that can turn this world around
