ON THE WATERFRONT 


Put their slogans on the factory wall 
The lights go down, darkness falls 
On the waterfront 

We appear from a world of cold and steel 
Discarded by the industrial wheel 
On the waterfront 

But down the dockland late at night 
The fires of London burn so bright 
No one cares, or sheds a tear 
For those who live through their nights of fear 
On the waterfront 
We live together 
On the waterfront 
We stay forever 
On the waterfront 

They push us away, they close the door 
In the part of the city that no-one saw 
On the waterfront 

And so we move like ghosts through a timeless zone 
Through the midst of the river we call our home 
On the waterfront 

But down the dockland late at night 
The fires of London burn so bright 
No one cares, or sheds a tear 
For those who live through their nights of fear 
On the waterfront 
We live together 
On the waterfront 
We stay forever 
On the waterfront 

On the waterfront 
We live together 
On the waterfront 
We stay forever 
On the waterfront 

We appear from a world of cold and steel 
Discarded by the industrial wheel 
And no one cares, or sheds a tear 
For those who live through their nights of fear 
On the waterfront 
We live together 
On the waterfront 
We stay forever 
On the waterfront 

On the waterfront 
We live together 
On the waterfront 
We stay forever 
On the waterfront
