Ed Sheeran - The City

[00:12.10] This city never sleeps [00:15.88] I hear the people walk by when it's late [00:20.77] Sirens bleed through my windowsill [00:23.12] I can't close my eyes [00:25.53] Don't control what I'm into [00:29.82] This tower is alive [00:33.41] The lights that blind, keep me awake [00:38.29] Hood up and lace untied [00:43.31] Sleep fills my mind [00:45.43] Can't control what I'm into [00:48.17] London calls me a stranger [00:55.65] A traveller [01:00.62] This is now my home, my home [01:09.02] I'm burning on the back street [01:12.70] [01:16.68] Stuck here, sitting in the backseat [01:21.79] I'm blazing on the street [01:24.00] What I do isn't up to you [01:26.53] If the city never sleeps then that makes two [01:30.97] [01:35.26] The pavement is my friend [01:39.86] It will take me where I need to go [01:43.99] I find it trips me up [01:47.42] And puts me down [01:48.88] This is not what I'm used to [01:54.58] And the shop across the road [01:56.86] Fulfils my needs and gives me company [02:01.53] When I need it [02:03.33] Voices speak through my walls [02:06.04] I don't think I'm gonna make it [02:07.77] Past tomorrow [02:12.95] London calls me a stranger [02:18.59] A traveller [02:21.69] This is now my home, my home [02:32.43] I'm burning on the back street [02:38.46] Stuck here, sitting in the backseat [02:42.49] [02:44.90] I'm blazing on the street [02:49.27] What I do isn't up to you [02:50.38] If the city never sleeps then that makes two [02:53.41] And my lungs hurt and my ears bled [02:55.97] With the sound of the city life echoed in my head [03:03.10] Do I need this to keep me alive? [03:07.15] The traffic stops and starts but I need to move along [03:10.54] London calls me a stranger [03:17.10] [03:20.25] This is not my home, home [03:30.98] [03:33.37] I'm burning on the back street [03:38.67] Stuck here, sitting in the backseat [03:42.67] [03:45.94] I'm blazing on the street [03:50.67] What I do isn't up to you [03:51.87] If the city never sleeps then that makes two [03:53.68]
