[00:13.19] I woke up in an alleyway
[00:16.15] In Liverpool the ship of fools was sinking
[00:21.05] As I rose up from the depths
[00:23.95] I stumbled down the road a ways
[00:28.85] Found London in a haze of weary violence
[00:33.52] It is hard to get my rest
[00:38.64] In looking for the best of her
[00:41.66] Well I have seen the worst she's had to offer
[00:46.04] But there's nothing I'll not keep
[00:50.83] England
[00:54.24]
[01:00.90] Blood on the thorn of an English rose
[01:07.71] I gather belongings, travelling clothes
[01:10.86] Now slowly drifting out of London Bridge
[01:15.71]
[01:17.67] It could be a year
[01:19.12] It could be ten
[01:20.61] Until she begs me back again
[01:23.61] And all my miles are measured in an inch
[01:30.18] Every fear that's taken over
[01:36.79] This wide-eyed waking, rambling rover
[01:43.22] Has grown within the heart that is my home
[01:49.43]
[02:01.47] England!
[02:08.06] In-ger-land!
[02:19.19]
[02:22.44] England rolls away.
