The London Air Raids

And we sit here so close in the dark

And we're so close to being torn apart

Every crash I can feel in our foundation

It runs through my veins and I hate the sensation

But I know that I'm safe here with you

'Cause we made it through everything, the old and the new

Just wake me up when all this is over

Wake me up and tell me it's not true

My sweet love, watch the air raids

As the streets of London are not safe

And I wish that we could escape

As the beat of the drum keeps on its play

And I long to feel the rain on my face

So I wait, I want the bombs to fade away

And the hum of the airplanes is such a sweet sound

As we're coming up from underground

Coming up to see our ruined state

Coming up to see those ruins that you've made

And in the East, I hear a nation shout

And we wait for the day when we can sing it out

My sweet love, watch the air raids

As the streets of London are not safe

And I wish that we could escape

As the beat of the drum keeps on its play

And I long to feel the rain on my face

So I wait, I want the bombs to fade away

(Singing ahoo)

(Singing ahoo)

(ah, ah, ah, ah)

My sweet love, watch the air raids

As the streets of London are not safe

And I wish that we could escape

As the beat of the drum keeps on its play

And I long to feel the rain on my face

So I wait
