From morn to friendless night, He tramps the streets, Just in case he might Come across her, he's a tragic sight, But he doesn’t care, Love gives him might, He haunts the cafes and the discos And the bars, so lovelorn. He knows that he won't find her, But he's got to keep on trying, It gives some meaning To his life, It gives some substance To his time, It is his motive, and his project, And his plan, so lovelorn. He only met her once, But it changed his life, And it changed his type, And it changed his mind, And he threw it all up, As if he'd gone insane, And he took to the streets, And another man was born. They say love comes but once For some, but when it does, It's like a mighty Atom bomb inside, A disease that seizes A gentle soul, And if it comes for you, You'd better try to hide. From morn to friendless night, He tramps the streets Just in case he might Come across her, he's a tragic sight, But he doesn't care, Love gives him might, He haunts the cafes and the discos And the bars, so lovelorn.

Lovelorn in London Town
From morn to friendless night, He tramps the streets, Just in case he might Come across her, he's a tragic sight, But he doesn’t care, Love gives him might, He haunts the cafes and the discos And the bars, so lovelorn. He knows that he won't find her, But he's got to keep on trying, It gives some meaning To his life, It gives some substance To his time, It is his motive, and his project, And his plan, so lovelorn. He only met her once, But it changed his life, And it changed his type, And it changed his mind, And he threw it all up, As if he'd gone insane, And he took to the streets, And another man was born. They say love comes but once For some, but when it does, It's like a mighty Atom bomb inside, A disease that seizes A gentle soul, And if it comes for you, You'd better try to hide. From morn to friendless night, He tramps the streets Just in case he might Come across her, he's a tragic sight, But he doesn't care, Love gives him might, He haunts the cafes and the discos And the bars, so lovelorn.
"Lovelorn in London Town" existed initially as part of a series of songs written in 2003, although the music had already been written for a different set of lyrics.
