I've walked the soles off my feet on these dark London streets
In search for a room and a bed,
And my heart grows
so weary, with these nights cold and dreary,
All I want is to lay down my head.
CHORUS:
I can see by your face that you're leaving this place,
And you're taking the overnight train.
If you should
meet my mother, will you tell her I love her
And I'll write just as soon as I can?
Six months in this city, God knows there's no pity
When you haven't a bob of your own,
And there's no need for
locks on this old cardboard box
Even though it's a place I call home.
Outside Paddington Station, my heart it is breaking,
And I can't tell my tears from the rain,
And the jingle and
jangle of the damned old triangle
Keeps ringing around in my brain.
As Soon As I Can.
