his city never sleepsI hear the people walk by when it's lateSirens bleed through my windowsillI can't close my eyesDon't control what I'm intoThis tower is aliveThe lights that blind keep me awakeWith my hood up and lace untiedSleep fills my mindDon't control what I'm intoLondon calls me a strangerA travellerThis is now my home, my homeI'm burning on the back streetStuck here sitting in the backseatAnd I'm blazing on the streetWhat I do isn't up to youAnd if the city never sleepsThen that makes twoThe pavement is my friendIt will take me where I need to goI find it trips me upAnd puts me downThis is not what I'm used toThe shop across the roadFulills my needs and gives me companyWhen I need itVoices speak through my wallsI don't think I'm gonna make itPast tomorrowLondon calls me a strangerA travellerThis is now my home, homeI'm burning on the back streetStuck here sitting in the backseatI'm blazing on the streetWhat I do isn't up to youAnd if the city never sleepsThen that makes twoAnd my lungs hurtAnd my ears bledWith the sound of the city lifeEchoed in my headDo I need this to keep me alive?The traffic stops and startsBut I need to move alongI'm from a city where the rain won't ceasePollution in the air matches that on the streetThe black smoke gets you head into a muddle, likeWalking into elephant syringes in the puddle, likeI was a country boy when I moved outGrew up too fast for my family to find outNow I try to stop my music running into nosedivesCan't resort to arrogance with white liesThis city won't erase meBut I can't help to see how this dark city changed meIt's all the same scene, music is my lifeBut now I try to fight whatever I need to hide fromNorth, South, East, West, London's my home nowKnees weak, but we never slow downNow I start to do my music properlyAnd stay from all the negative shit that will follow meLondon calls me a strangerThis is not my home, homeI'm burning on the back streetStuck here sitting in the backseatI'm blazing on the streetWhat I do isn't up to youAnd if the city never sleepsThen that makes two

remember when ed sheeran was good

This song ed sheeran is good

I want to perform ed sheeran that in this 2018 I miss his song

I genuinely hear “stop pissing in the back seat” instead of “stuck here sitting in the back seat” 😂😂🙈

This makes me a little sad idk why lol

THIS SONGS IS A MASTERPIECE! I made a cover of this song and I'd appreciate if you guys would listen to it, it's on my channel x

i love this song!

london calls me stranger

I LOVE this song. Ed Sheeran is my favourite artist and this is my favourite song along with the Divide song Supermarket Flowers x

When he says "too" on the end of the chorus he sounds Aussie

his best song, I LOVE IT SO MUCH

Me *gets icecream out of freezer*Song: do I need this to keep me alive Me: hmmm...yes

the studio vid is so much better but I still love this song no matter what

UNDERRATED

why is this so underrated??

Gosh, I love this song!

My god I'm addicted to that hook....

BR

This is one of the best he's written

London calls me a stranger... :( i rebember when i was in London with no money on streets

Live version of this is way better and just fantastic

who heared the other version of this song?

this is probs one of my fave ed sheeran songs

When I was maybe 10 or 11 years old, my uncle introduced me to this album and I fell in love with Ed. All we did was listen to it in his car going wherever in the grey skies of uptown Toronto. All these songs bring back memories, man.
