The day the ravens left the tower


Ive swept the floors of all my kings
Ive opened doors and let the tourists in
Days of wine and roses
Prime ministers, red robes
These days are gone

Ive stood on guard as my queens were born

Ive cut the grass on many english lawns

Of strawberries and ice cream
Of cricket and cold beer

These days
London towers burning. parliaments ablaze
Buckingham palace has gone
Somewhere in the distance my darling shes a crying
I should be by her side

This is the day the ravens left the tower
This is the day the ravens fly away

Fly away, fly away.
Fly away, fly away.
Fly away

Ive stood on the changing of the guards
To the bloody tower watching the crown jewels
A penny for the guy sir?
Will you vote left or right?
These days

London bridge is falling.
St. pauls cathedral bums
The tower blocks are gone
Somewhere in the distance my darlings shes a crying
I should be by her side.

This is the day the ravens left the tower

This is the day the ravens fly away

Fly away, fly away (fly away)
Fly away, fly away (fly away)
Fly away, fly away (fly away)
Fly away, fly away

And if I live to see the dawning of the day
I hope Im in your arms as we get swept away

Oh darling I will be home soon
Darling I will be home soon

(ring a ring a roses, a pocket full of posies
Atishoo, atishoo, we all fall down)

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Alarm are an alternative rock band that emerged from North Wales in the late 1970s. They started as a mod band and stayed together for over ten years. Unusually for a rock band, they displayed marked influences from Welsh language and culture. By opening for acts such as U2 and Bob Dylan, they became a popular alternative rock band of the 1980s, retaining a small but loyal following to the present day.
