Piccadilly Songtext

von Rita Connolly

I stood in Piccadilly
And I thought I heard the sea
Thought I heard the sea
And a thousand voices laughed at me

I saw an aeroplane up in the sky
I shot it down
Yes I shot it down
And I watched it fall without a sound

Please don't leave me in this lonely, lonely city
Please don't leave me all alone in this town
With every word you say you're breathing sweet air
Anew
And I'm bleeding with the scent an with the sound

I saw a boy wave from the bridge
But nobody waved back
Not a soul waved back
But he waved until the day grew black

I know you did oppose it
But you filled my glass again
Filled it to the brim
And you're hoping it might ease the pain

Please don't leave me in this lonely, lonely city
Please don't leave me all alone in this town
With every word you say you're breathing sweet air
Anew
And I'm bleeding with the scent and with the sound
