I'm flying over London on a cold November night
The river snakes across the vast ocean of electric lights
Fast and weightless like this marvel in the sky
The young and restless skateboard in the dark beneath the closing London Eye
Yeah I'm flying over London looking down at busy streets
I scout to find a few familiar places looking up at me
Seven years since I first stepped off of this plane
But still this city doesn't know my stories or my dreams or my first name
Someday I'll have to say goodbye
To the city that showed me and wove me and broke me
Someday I'll have to say goodbye
To London
Yeah, London
I press against the window my forehead cold and numb
As I search through blurry memories to trace the woman I've become
Between St Margaret Lane and Eve's Market Cafe
I found myself in pieces, took what I could carry and I threw the rest away
I'm flying over London on a cold November night
Unlit paths like bullet wounds in the blanket of electric lights
The city is a living creature all on its own
And we all push like blood through its veins
So close together. So alone.
Someday I'll have to say goodbye
To the city that thrilled me and built me and killed me and
Someday I'll have to say goodbye
To London
Someday I'll have to say goodbye
To the city that moved me and soothed me, confused me and
Someday I'll have to say goodbye
To London
Yeah, London

Tina Dico, pseudonimo di Tina Dickow Danielsen, è una cantautrice danese nata a Copenaghen nel 1978. Dopo aver studiato musica al conservatorio di Aarhus, ha iniziato la sua carriera musicale negli anni '90 con il gruppo indie pop The Blue Van. Nel 2003 ha debuttato come solista con l'album "The Heart Is A Drum", che le ha valso un grande successo in Danimarca e attenzione internazionale. Dico è nota per il suo stile musicale unico, che fonde elementi di folk, pop, elettronica e jazz, caratterizzato da melodie orecchiabili e testi introspettivi. La sua musica è spesso descritta come intima, poetica e malinconica. Nel 2006 ha fondato la propria etichetta discografica, 'Dico Records', per mantenere il controllo creativo sul suo lavoro. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "Count The Waves" (2005), "The Heart Is A Drum" (2003) e "In the Middle of It All" (2010). Alcuni dei brani più rappresentativi di Tina Dico sono: 'Someday', 'I'm Not Afraid', 'You Are My Everything'.
