| I went and burnt my bridges at the weekend, | |
| And now there's nothing left but another week to end, | |
| And a sick and sunken soul in a drunken body like mine, | |
| From London bridge I swim east along the tide | |
| She says I won't wait, I won't wait, | |
| And now she tells me that she wants me, | |
| She says I won't wait, I won't wait, | |
| And now she tells me that she wants me, | |
| And won't you take me, | |
| Hooooome | |
| When battered heads dissemble and descend into a mess upon the city, (ooooh) | |
| When bleeding hearts awake from single beds and paint themselves so very pretty, | |
| Oh from London Bridge, you know it's not such a bad sight, | |
| Oh no no | |
| Shuddered hard at those memories of those filthy nights we spent, | |
| I never wanted to be the one who just came and went, | |
| Oh lover, you know I can't afford your game, | |
| Oh lover, no I can't afford your game | |
| She said, | |
| When battered heads dissemble and descend into a mess upon the city, (ooooh) | |
| When bleeding hearts awake from single beds and paint themselves so very pretty, | |
| When you're just 18, you never win and no it's not right, | |
| Well from London Bridge, you know its not such a bad sight | |
| Woah, | |
| I won't wait, I won't wait | |
| And now she tells me that she wants me, | |
| She says I won't wait, I won't wait, | |
| And now she tells me that she wants me, | |
| And that she loves me, | |
| Oh take me home, | |
| Take me home, | |
| Woah won't you take me home, | |
| Come on, take me home |
