In basements and hollows
To street lamps and sorrows
Awaiting, as the sun is fading
Head just above water
Like lambs to the slaughter
We caved in
The big city called us long ago
Those neon signs hard to ignore
Destined for trouble we’re gullible
But we’re onto something
With not much money, work it out
We came with nothing
Went dancing through the dark
And we’re riding solo
Not even love could hold you down
‘Cause the lights of Soho
Are always calling out, calling out
We’re tragic day dreamers
Blindsided believers
Parading, like we don’t need saving
Could all end tomorrow
But we’ll beg, steal and borrow
To stay here
The big city called us long ago
Those neon signs hard to ignore
A dance with the devil we’re vulnerable
But we’re onto something
With not much money, work it out
We came with nothing
Went dancing through the dark
And we’re riding solo
Not even love could hold you down
‘Cause the lights of Soho
Are always calling out, calling out
Are we blinded?
Starlight surrounded...
The big city called us long ago
Those neon signs hard to ignore
Lost in your colour so wonderful
Yeh we’re onto something
With not much money, work it out
We came with nothing
Went dancing through the dark
And we’re riding solo
Not even love could hold you down
‘Cause the lights of Soho
Are always calling out, calling out
Are we blinded?
Starlight surrounded...
