"Under Waterloo Skies" lyrics

As our city lay sleeping, a symphony swells
We tip-toe through the graveyard to the sound of Bow Bells
Down to the river and a Waterloo Sunset for two
Our young lungs asunder our old hearts a wreck
Your rosary hung like a noose around my neck
You say do you hear them, the old ghosts are singing a tune

It's a hymn for tomorrow, a hymn for tomorrow

Because tonight, the bones of our home town are ours
We sing There Is A Light That Never Goes Out in the back of your car
And if tonight, was the last night of our lives
We'd sing There Is A Light That Never Goes Out out 'til my iPhone dies
Under Waterloo Skies

As our city is waking, we're chilled to the bone
We start navigating the northern line home
We carve our initials into the seats on the tube

Along suicide bridge like two ghosts in the snow
We sit and we spit on the cars far below
I say I can hear them, the old ghosts are singing a tune

It's a hymn for tomorrow, a hymn for tomorrow

Because tonight, the bones of our home town are ours
We sing There Is A Light That Never Goes Out in the back of your car
And if tonight was the last night of our lives
We'd sing There Is A Light That Never Goes Out out 'til my iPhone dies
Under Waterloo Skies
