Lyrics

At night they would go walking 'til the breaking of the day
The morning is for sleeping
Through the dark streets they go searching to see God in their own way
Save the night time for your weeping
Your weeping

Singing la la-la la-la la la eh
And the night over London hey


So we rode down to the river where Victorian ghosts pray
For their curses to be broken
We go underneath the arches where the witches are and they say:
"There are ghost towns in the ocean"
The ocean

Singing la la-la la-la la la eh
And the night over London hey


God is in the houses and God is in my head
And all the cemeteries in London
I see God come in my garden but I don't know what he said
For my heart it wasn't open
Not open

Singing la la-la la-la la la eh
And the night over London hey

Singing la la-la la-la la la eh
There's no light over London today
