Towers Of London Lyrics

Towers of London
When they had built you
Did you watch over the men who fell?
Towers of London
When they had built you
Victoria's gem found in somebody's hellPavements of gold leading to the underground
Grenadier Guardsmen walking pretty ladies around
Fog is the sweat of the never never navies who pound
Pound, pound, pound, pound
Spikes in the rails to their very own heavenTowers of London
When they had built you
Did you watch over the men who fell?
Towers of London
When they had built you
Victoria's gem found in somebody's hellBridges of muscles spanning so long and high
Merchants from Stepney walking pretty ladies by
Rain is the tears of the never never navies who cry
For the bridge that doesn't go in the direction of DublinTowers of London

When they had built you
Did you watch over the men who fell?
Towers of London
When they had built you
Victoria's gem found in somebody's hellAnd I've seen it in a painting
And I've seen it in engraving
And I've seen it in their faces
Clear as children's chalk lines on the pavingAnd I've seen it in a painting
And I've seen it in engraving
And I've seen it in their faces
Clear as children's chalk lines on the pavingTowers of London
When they had built you
Did you watch over the men who fell?
Towers of London
When they had built you
Victoria's gem found in somebody's hellTowers of London
Towers of London
Towers of London
Towers of LondonLa, la, Londinium
La, la, Londinium
La, la, Londinium
