Lyrics
0:19They're pacing piccadilly in packs again
0:24And moaning for the mercy of a never come rain
0:29The sun's had enough and the simmering sky
0:33Has the heave and the hue
0:36Of a woman on fire
0:38Shop shutters rattle down and I'm cutting the crowd
0:43All scented and descending from the satellite towns
0:48The neon is graffiti singing make a new start
0:53So I look for a plot where I can bury
0:57My broken heart
0:59No I know I won't forget you
1:06But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
1:18The man on the door has a head like mars
1:23Like a baby born to the doors of the bars
1:27And surrounded by steam with his folded arms
1:32He's got that urban genie thing going on
1:37He's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace
1:42Saint Peter in satin he's like buddha with lace
1:47He's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace
1:52Saint Peter in satin he's like buddha with lace
1:58No I know I won't forget you
2:06But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
2:17No I know I won't forget you
2:25But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
2:37Do you move through the room with a glass in
2:40Your hand
2:42Thinking too hard about the way you stand
2:46Are you watching pair off and drinking 'em long
2:52Falling in love every second song
2:56Do you move through the room with a glass in
3:00Your hand
3:02Thinking too hard about the way you stand
3:06Are you watching them pair off and drinking them long
3:11Are you falling in love
3:14Are you falling in love
3:16Are you falling in love every second song
3:41No I know I won't forget you
3:49But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me
4:01No I know I won't forget you
4:08But I'll forget myself and the city will forgive me
They're pacing piccadilly in packs again And moaning for the mercy of a never come rain The sun's had enough and the simmering sky Has the heave and the hue Of a woman on fire Shop shutters rattle down and I'm cutting the crowd All scented and descending from the satellite towns The neon is graffiti singing make a new start So I look for a plot where I can bury My broken heart No I know I won't forget you But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me The man on the door has a head like mars Like a baby born to the doors of the bars And surrounded by steam with his folded arms He's got that urban genie thing going on He's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace Saint Peter in satin he's like buddha with lace He's so mercifully free of the pressures of grace Saint Peter in satin he's like buddha with lace No I know I won't forget you But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me No I know I won't forget you But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me Do you move through the room with a glass in Your hand Thinking too hard about the way you stand Are you watching pair off and drinking 'em long Falling in love every second song Do you move through the room with a glass in Your hand Thinking too hard about the way you stand Are you watching them pair off and drinking them long Are you falling in love Are you falling in love Are you falling in love every second song No I know I won't forget you But I'll forget myself if the city will forgive me No I know I won't forget you But I'll forget myself and the city will forgive me
