Lyrics
I still scour the walls for the secret signs
I still stand it all at the Lancelands
And I was born not a mile from here
Grown in the Marybourne Fields
And while we were wild and sublimely porous
Music and love bats falling rain-like on us
Mary a spark from departure's fire
But oh how we change our attire!
And the leaving of London couldn't come too soon
The leaving of London couldn't come too soon
I am not bored or tired of living
Neither uninsured nor unforgiving
And I have not run with the baying pack
And maybe in time I'll come back
But the leaving of London couldn't come too soon
No, the leaving of London couldn't come too soon
Yeah, the leaving of London couldn't come too soon
Oh, the leaving of London couldn't come too soon
