Lyrics
Gotta keep my hopes up high
Gotta keep my third eye wide
When you ride the skyline
From London to Shanghai
And the clouds gave way to light
A million megawatts bright
Watch high speed life arrive
From London to Shanghai
I'm flyin' sarsaparilla to my local cafe
While lookin' east, then fly towards the moon
Every day I send a text back to the centre of the old world
Tell 'em I won't be back any time soon
(Send a text back to the old world)
(Soon, won't be back any time soon)
I never dreamt the world would be like this
Never thought I'd ever fly
A great leap forward that got left behind
In another world, in another mind
The old gods die and the new gods arise
I'm way past end time
I'm livin' in real time
I don't get much sleep time
From London to Shanghai
And I couldn't wait to fly
I'm cutting every tie
I'm starting a brand new life
Won't even say goodbye
I look down over the wasteland
I'm flyin' straight through
I'm leaving everywhere I don't want to be
I'm going to a place where a hundred flowers bloom
Straight to the heart of this century, century
(I'm going to the place where a hundred flowers bloom)
Century, oh
And I'm glad to see the world like this
As people's square comes into view
The London Eye blinks at the TV Tower
I'm in the right place, at the right time
What a change in pace, I'm along for the ride
I bounce from London via India
I swim through air, sea and air
There's a million right behind me now
It's where it starts, where mine end
A giant revives, the new earth is live
Gotta keep my hopes up high
Gotta keep my third eye wide
When you ride the skyline
From London to Shanghai
