it all started in london
didn't it all start there?
on cobble stones
in Covnet garden
where people
froze
before they passed there
..and who can understand it?
dear goodness,
-who could grasp it?
it was,
-it was
it was it was it was
it was england that made me
it was in dark london i bloomed
a volit opening for sun
but dust coating me too soon
it was england that made me
i reached up for life
but in the thick of it
the very dirt and smog of it
it was london, that made me,
undone...
i was gentle and frale
but the world around me stale
and who could ever see?
the very light and life that dwelled in me?
it was london i was brought to
and no one really thought to
leave me uncovered in the sun
it was england that made me,
and in it's way london that saved me
from a life live by others
-so many taking that road to go down
one that leads right to the Crown
but it's here in cobble stone streets
drencthed in noise and smog i can be found
here- waiting to be picked up off the ground
by some flower girl- Covent garden- bound
it was england that made me
and in london
i am
found
