London Town
Rediscovering Myself in the Echoes of London Town
Lyrics
I do believe, I must believe,
I have a strong belief, it is necessary for me to believe.
I think I can begin again.
I believe I can start anew.
Become again the man I was back when.
Reclaim the identity I had in the past.
So I'm walking on your streets again,
I am walking on the streets of London once more.
Feeling now as I did then,
Experiencing the emotions I felt in the past.
I've since become a different man.
I have changed into a different person since then.
London Town, turn be around, London Town,
Appealing to London Town to influence a change in him.
Carry me back, oh, London Town,
Asking London Town to take him back.
Lost and found, and I feel like going back
Feeling lost and found, expressing a desire to return.
I can remember lots of time and space,
Recalling various moments in time and space.
If I lose the name,
Even if the specific details fade, the faces remain memorable.
Still I know the faces.
The passage of time has marked its impact.
Time as come and left its traces.
Time has left its marks and imprints.
London Town, turn be around, London Town,
Reiterating the plea for London Town to bring about change.
Carry me back, oh, London Town,
Requesting London Town to carry him back.
Lost and found, and I feel like going back.
Experiencing a sense of being lost and found, considering a return.
When I grew too old and dull to rock 'n roll,
Reflecting on aging and losing the vitality for rock 'n roll.
Like to hold on tight to you, darling.
Expressing a desire to hold on tightly to a loved one.
And when my fires have all burned out,
When passions fade, hoping to still contemplate the past.
I'd like to think I can still think about
Believing he can continue to think about the things he sang about.
The things I used to sing about
Recalling the themes from his past songs.
When I was spending all my time alone.
Reflecting on a time spent alone.
By myself and on my own,
Being by oneself and self-reliant.
Seldom seen and quite unknown.
Living a life seldom seen and relatively unknown.
London Town, turn be around, London Town,
Repeating the plea for London Town to bring about a change in him.
Carry me back, oh, London Town,
Reiterating the request for London Town to carry him back.
Lost and found, and I feel like going back.
Feeling lost and found, expressing a desire to return.
Yes, I feel like going back.
Expressing a strong desire to go back to London Town.
