Shadows of london

City lights flicker, dreams in the haze,

A boy from the streets, lost in a maze,

Promises whispered, a spark in my eyes,

For my mum’s sweet smile, I’ll rise to the skies.

Grew up with shadows, where the tough hearts play,

Dodging the rain in a concrete ballet,

With my best friend, we shared all our dreams,

Late night confessions, bursting at the seams.

I’d trade all the trouble for just one more day,

To laugh in the alley, let the worries drift away,

But there’s something unspoken, a truth I conceal,

My heart beats for him, and it’s starting to feel.

Oh, London’s calling, but I’m holding on tight,

Best friend, my secret, my stars in the night,

Promise to mum, gotta make her proud,

But I’m falling for the boy who stands out in the crowd.

We’ve walked through the chaos, the stories we’ve spun,

From the cobbled streets to the roaring sun,

He’s the light in my heart, my reason to fight,

But what if my truth brings a tempest of night?

I’d trade all the trouble for just one more day,

To laugh in the alley, let the worries drift away,

But there’s something unspoken, a truth I conceal,

My heart beats for him, and it’s starting to feel.

Oh, London’s calling, but I’m holding on tight,

Best friend, my secret, my stars in the night,

Promise to mum, gotta make her proud,

But I’m falling for the boy who stands out in the crowd.

Should I tell him tonight, let my heart unfold,

In the whispers of twilight, where the stories are told,

If I risk it all, could we dance in the rain?

To love in the shadows, it’s worth all the pain.

Oh, London’s calling, but I’m holding on tight,

Best friend, my secret, my stars in the night,

Promise to mum, gotta make her proud,

But I’m falling for the boy who stands out in the crowd.

So as the sun sets on this beautiful place,

I’ll gather my courage, put love in its space,

A promise to mum, with my heart I’ll break free,

For the boy in my dreams, it’s where I’ll be me.
