[00:00.00]The City (Live at Sticky Studios; Loose Change EP) - Ed Sheeran (艾德·希兰)
[00:44.83]The city never sleeps
[00:47.11]
[00:48.52]I hear the people walk by when it's late
[00:51.03]
[00:52.73]Sirens beat through my window sill
[00:55.50]I can't close my eyes
[00:57.26]Don't control what I'm into
[01:00.34]
[01:02.75]This town is alive
[01:04.56]
[01:07.00]With lights that blind keep me awake
[01:09.97]
[01:11.00]With my hood up and lace untied
[01:12.81]
[01:13.86]The street fills my mind
[01:15.74]Don't control what I'm into
[01:18.61]
[01:21.03]London calls me a stranger
[01:24.44]
[01:25.36]A traveller ohoohohh
[01:29.21]
[01:30.12]This is now my home my home
[01:37.09]
[01:38.32]Oh woah
[01:39.48]
[01:40.98]Burning on the back street
[01:42.94]Oh woah
[01:44.02]
[01:44.79]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[01:47.32]Oh woah
[01:48.44]
[01:49.30]And I'm blazing on the street
[01:51.83]What I do isn't upto you
[01:53.80]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[01:56.39]
[01:57.26]The pavement is my friend
[01:59.74]
[02:01.54]It'll take me where I need to go
[02:03.74]
[02:05.67]If I find it trips me up
[02:07.30]
[02:08.58]And puts me down
[02:10.49]This is not what I'm used to
[02:13.47]
[02:15.60]The shop across the road
[02:17.43]
[02:19.81]It fills my needs and keeps me company
[02:22.26]When I need it
[02:23.74]Voices beat through my walls
[02:25.62]
[02:26.28]I don't think I'm gonna make it
[02:28.44]Past to-mor-roow
[02:32.20]
[02:33.71]London calls me a stranger
[02:37.18]
[02:38.02]A traveller ohoohohh
[02:42.00]
[02:42.87]This is now my home my home
[02:48.75]
[02:50.97]Oh woah
[02:52.24]
[02:53.75]Burning on the back street
[02:55.53]Oh woah
[02:56.69]
[02:57.44]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[03:00.00]Oh woah
[03:01.28]
[03:02.07]And I'm blazing on the street
[03:04.54]What I do isn't upto you
[03:06.48]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[03:09.05]
[03:09.88]And my lungs hurt
[03:10.99]
[03:12.04]And my ears bled
[03:13.31]
[03:14.56]With the sounds of the city life
[03:16.29]Echoed in my head
[03:18.18]
[03:18.92]Do I need this
[03:20.27]
[03:20.84]To keep me alive
[03:22.15]
[03:22.68]The traffic stops and starts but I
[03:25.03]Need to move along
[03:27.26]
[03:29.77]Im from a city where the rain won't cease
[03:31.81]Pollution in the air matches that on the street
[03:34.00]The black smoke gets your head in a muddle like
[03:36.33]Walking into elephants syringes in the puddle like
[03:38.84]I was a country boy when I moved out
[03:40.80]Grew up to fast for my family to find out
[03:43.07]Now I try to stop my music running into nosedives
[03:45.17]Can't resort to arrogance with white lies
[03:46.94]
[03:47.77]This city won't erase me
[03:49.71]But I can't help to see how this dark city changed me
[03:52.37]It's all the same scene music is my life
[03:54.07]But I try to fight whatever I need to hide from
[03:57.09]North
[03:57.28]South
[03:57.53]East
[03:57.73]West
[03:58.17]London's my home now knees weak but we never slow down
[04:01.33]Now I start to do my music properly
[04:02.90]
[04:03.43]And stay away from the negitave s**t that will follow me
[04:05.72]
[04:06.50]London calls me a stranger
[04:10.25]
[04:15.40]This is now my home home
[04:22.96]
[04:23.47]Oh woah
[04:24.80]
[04:26.34]Burning on the back street
[04:28.11]Oh woah
[04:29.19]
[04:30.01]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[04:32.54]Oh woah
[04:33.83]
[04:34.57]And I'm blazing on the street
[04:37.00]What I do isn't up to you
[04:39.18]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
[04:41.91]Oh woah
[04:42.78]
[04:44.37]Burning on the back street
[04:46.29]Oh woah
[04:47.45]
[04:48.25]Stuck here sitting in the back seat
[04:50.66]Oh woah
[04:51.88]
[04:52.77]And I'm blazing on the street
[04:55.19]What I do isn't up to you
[04:57.22]And if the city never sleeps then that makes two
