Goodbye Piccadilly Lyrics by The Times

This Is London

1983

[Verse 1]
This is the evening of the day
I'm watching the Waterloo sunset
It could never end any other way
That's why I'm standing here prepared
This postcard London I have grown to hate
Brings back memories from years ago
Like spending New Year's Eve on the steps of the Tate
Without a friend in the whole wide world
[Chorus]
Goodbye Piccadilly
Farewell Leicester Square
It's time for me to lеave you
I don't belong herе
Goodbye swingin' London
I'm swinging high in London
Lots and lots of memories of yesterday
Will leave me alone
[Verse 2]
I was one of million searching for hope
All I found was pain and more pain
But soon no more pain thanks to this length of road
As I hang in the English rain
[Chorus]
Goodbye Piccadilly
Farewell Leicester Square
It's time for me to leave you
I don't belong there
Goodbye swingin' London
I'm swinging high in London
Now for me it's over
Oh yesterday has left me alone
Has left me alone
Has left me alone
[Chorus]
Goodbye Piccadilly
Farewell Leicester Square
It's time for me to leave you
I don't belong there
Goodbye swingin' London
I'm swinging high in London
Now for me it's over
Oh yesterday has left me alone
Has left me alone
Has left me alone
