We pulled away around midnight As the rain came pouring down I was thinking of you my love And summertime in London town We were dancing till the sun came up We walked home by the old canal Why can't it always be? Summertime in London town She ain't always pretty Sometimes she's cruel But we never really needed To make some kinda saint out of you Driving over the river Through the Westway to the South We thought it could never end Summertime in London town ♪ There's a cold wind blowing And I'm so far away from home The good times we had seem Like a thousand years ago When the music was playing Love was everywhere and all around And I'm sitting here dreaming of Summertime in London town
