This Is London Lyrics - The Times

I'm walking in the streets of Battersea 

In search of happiness 

But all I find is misery 

In this London borough mess 

My very best friend deserted me 

For someone else today 

She met a small-time insurance broker 

And they'll be married by next May 

We had some rows and we had some scenes 

But a couple of laughs as well 

And everything seemed just like it should 

That's what I thought myself 

But now I see how wrong I was 

And crying won't make it better 

'Cos life's got nothing left for me 

Since the day I cried forever

This is London 

Your own London 

I stumble into a café 

In search of a little chat 

The conversation, tea and scones 

But nothing came of that 

'Cause now I'm stuffed to talk to anyone no more 

In case you're one of them 

You're the motion from another world, 

And they're the real men 

The Leicester Square and Soho lights 

Confuse my confused thoughts 

I'm stopped and asked for directions 

By an American tourist in shorts 

I've had enough, I can't take any more 

I'll go round to her flat, 

And tell her there's nothing left for me 

Since the day I cried forever
