[Verse 1]
As the sun takes the city
On the island of the rose
It's not London calling me
It's my heart back home

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, she waits for me in the rain outside
As I patiently try to pass the time
Oh, I had my fun in the smoke and clouds
But the day is done, now all I want is to get out 'cause it's been
Days, weeks, no light in this square mile
Her face, my mind, just one more twilight

[Chorus]
One sunset left in England
So go on then, trouble
One sunset 'til I see her
In her red sundress
So I'll have a smoke and I'll fix a drink
Then I'll blow a kiss to the bloody queen
Oh, my love, she waits, so long overdue
One more sun to set, then I'll cross the sea to you

[Verse 2]
It's been two weeks in the rain
And it's hazy in my head
One more sunset in this place
'Til I see her again
[Pre-Chorus]
Well she waits for me in the rain outside
As I patiently try to pass the time
Oh, I had my fun in the smoke and clouds
But the day is done, now all I want is to get out 'cause it's been
Days, weeks, no light in this square mile
Her face, my mind, just one more twilight

[Chorus]
One sunset left in England
So go on then, trouble
One sunset 'til I see her
In her red sundress
So I'll have a smoke and I'll fix a drink
Then I'll blow a kiss to the bloody queen
Oh, my love, she waits, so long overdue
One more sun to set, then I'll cross the sea to you
(Cross the sea to you)

[Bridge]
Let it fade
Let it fade away, away
Let it fade
Let it fade

[Outro]
So I'll have a smoke and I'll fix a drink
Then I'll blow a kiss to the bloody queen
Oh, my love, she waits, so long overdue
One more sun to set, then I'll cross the sea to you
