Will you take me across the Channel
|
London Bridge is falling down
|
strange, a woman tries to save
|
more than a man will try to drown
|
and it's the rain that they predicted
|
it's the forecast ev'ry time
|
the rose has died because you picked it,
|
I believe that brandy's mine
|
And all over the world
|
strangers talk only about the weather
|
All over the world it's the same,
|
it's the same!
|
And the world is getting flatter
|
and the sky is falling all around
|
oh, and nothing is the matter
|
for I'll never cry in town
|
and a love like ours, my dear,
|
is best measured when it's down
|
and I never buy umbrellas
|
cause there's always one around
|
And you know that it's beginning
|
and you know that it's the end
|
once again we are strangers
|
as the fog goes rolling in
|
and all over the world
|
strangers talk only about the weather
|
All over the world it's the same,
|
it's the same!
|
It's the same!
