The Flowers of London
Nathan Joseph White
[Verse 1]
The strange and the curious
Grew well in dark corners
Away from the trampling feet
Warmed by their own strange heat
They swayed to their own strange breeze
[Chorus]
But now
The flowers of London have gone
The flowers of London have gone
The flowers of London have gone
They've gone
[Verse 2]
They cut up the sky
And the garden ran dry
'Cause they left it no space to grow on
This once was a garden for some
But now the night and its garden have gone
[Chorus]
The flowers of London have gone
The flowers of London have gone
The flowers of London have gone
They've gone, gone, gone, gone
The flowers of London have gone
The flowers of London have gone
The flowers of London have gone
They've gone
