Walking in time to the ringing bell
Waterstained where the raindrops fell
On an island of green in a city sea
And traffic-sound breakers roll in to me
I never thought I’d be up this morning

But London is calling to me
And I never thought that I’d find somebody
Never be caught so easily

London, Luck And Love
What else could l be dreaming of
The place, the chance, the feeling of

London, Luck And Love
What else could I be dreaming of
London and Love were in your eyes
And Luck ’cause the moment we realized

That mornings are better spent in bed
And some things are better left unsaid
I never felt so close so quickly
‘Cause no one gets this close to me
l never thought that I’d find somebody
And never be caught so easily
