robert naylor (uk) - a london dawn كلمات الأغنية

a dusty pavement tells its tale
to all who care to listen
of memories so old and cruelly torn
it says the roman soldiers passed along the appian way
but no one else will let me spoil the dawn
and though your thirty dollars now has bought our child
i’m sure i see old adam still around
walking through his favourite london town

the crested river finds a newborn shore
where lonely gypsies met one restless day to work together
talking in the early london dawn
with less than fifty people who knеw the world of leisure
i’m surе i’ve seen time hurrying on
shedding tinsel tears on london town

and in victorian days, they used to spend
towards the cause of keeping in with all their higher friends
and no one ever thought of making love
while in the soho backstreets
the wh0res were full of raising blood
i’m sure leaves of light are turning grey
from the human heave of a london day

and while the ravens fly in the park
there must be hope for me
at six o’clock, the all_night café sign
deep in serving light refreshments for the working man
and all i hear is the seagull’s scream and cry
who’s lost the gull in offices, i hold the promised land
but i’m sure he hears the ocean in the thames
i’ve often thought the seagull is my friend

the golden leaf is shanking on and on
whirling like a feather in the spiral of my light
scattered through the breeze here is my song
leaving in the hope that someone else will find the time
before the words are lost within the street
with no one but a seagull that could tell where i have been

a dusty pavement tells its tale
to all who care to listen
