On the Waterfront - Anti-Nowhere League

On the Waterfront Lyrics

Put their slogans on the factory wall
The lights go down, darkness falls
On the waterfrontWe appear from a world of cold and steel
Discarded by the industrial wheel
On the waterfrontBut down the dockland late at night
The fires of London burn so bright
No one cares, or sheds a tear
For those who live through their nights of fearOn the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfrontThey push us away, they close the door
In the part of the city that no-one saw
On the waterfrontAnd so we move like ghosts through a timeless zone
Through the midst of the river we call our home
On the waterfrontBut down the dockland late at night
The fires of London burn so bright
No one cares, or sheds a tear

For those who live through their nights of fearOn the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfrontOn the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfrontWe appear from a world of cold and steel
Discarded by the industrial wheel
And no one cares, or sheds a tear
For those who live through their nights of fearOn the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfrontOn the waterfront
We live together
On the waterfront
We stay forever
On the waterfront
