t. shan (us) - +44 lyrics
[part i]
[intro]
back of the double decker, facing back
seeing life in steadicam
watching the black cab follow then tail on off
wondering every time if i’ll ever stay for long
feel like i’m always alone at the end of the night
friends coupled up and holding hands retreating into the night
i’ve always been the little engine that might
just a little too complacent with my regular life
nyc and why see anything else
and it’s not like any of y’all are settling down here forever
[bridge]
night bus like i’m harry, ay
still on the night bus like i’m harry
still on the night bus like i’m harry
still on the night bus like i’m harry, ay ay ay ay
[part ii]
[verse 1]
this ain’t my series, but i’ll steal the scene
crossover from my show when the filming meets
guest starring but never part of the main cast
they act on the english channel, most i can watch is the playback on the groupchat
i know it ain’t home, but it always feels like home when i’m here
i know i got y’all at home, but i might come here if the moment appears
we went to the pool at 3 am after the club like they always do
eelis told me it’s weird you’re with us here, you know, you feel out of place in this room
i know
walking home at 6, my suit wrinkled, chlorine flowing in my hair
like i’m back in college, walking bankside, looking like a homeless debonair
stumbling back to ali’s, the boys all split
conveniently all the white boys live
under one roof, guess 2015 lost its timelessness
for all but me
you’re all my friends, but that’s not the same between you
i guess if i lived here, i probably wouldn’t be taking the tube
to see everyone, you’d go through a funnel
some of y’all already making a move back home
i just romanticized the year i created a new backbone
[chorus]
end of the night, i’m always alone, yeah
you can’t recap all i wanted to know, yeah
godd-mn, this city’s still comfortable (comfortable)
stepping off the plane, i still got the feeling that london is home
ya ya
at the end of the night, y’all dissipate, and i’m always alone
night bus, night bus stop, been reflecting on what i couldn’t have known (couldn’t have known)
i know all these streets, i know all these alleys, this city’s too comfortable
i became a man here, i figured my sh-t out, man i made london my own
[post-chorus]
3000 miles just to see if u ‘k
(whatcha’ looking for for)
3000 miles just to stay a few days
(who’re you living for for)
them or you
made a soft brexit so i could visit too
i ain’t even use the same parlance
when i’m here, playing roles in different projects
[verse 2]
sh-t is feeling cinematic
‘magine if i ever spend a winter back here
london been the blue screen in the back
i’m method acting, i could lose me in the accent
life finally caught up to my lyrics
i fly all that mileage for a beer
with my peers, playing the field, no one told me
how this lifestyle is tiring to adhere
but it is, game imported from the anglo border
thank you lord, i got it ‘fore i could afford it
never been good at saying sayonora
that’s why i visit, but y’all grown and chasing glory
can’t be waiting for me, i said that before this
for a different group but that sh-t’s still important
and that’s obvious, it’s just hard for me to swallow
always walked farther from my apartment just to walk another block though with a friend
now we’ve all got jobs and we’re talking just to talk though in the end
eelis said “actually doesn’t seem like you left,” i prefer honesty from you
drunk as f-ck in the club, only fitting place yelling “batman dadada-dada”
[chorus]
end of the night, i’m always alone, yeah
you can’t recap all i wanted to know, yeah
godd-mn, this city’s still comfortable (comfortable)
stepping off the plane, still got the feeling that london is home
ya ya
at the end of the night, y’all dissipate, and i’m always alone
night bus, night bus stop, been reflecting on what i couldn’t have known (couldn’t have known)
i know all these streets, i know all the alleys, this city’s too comfortable
i became a man here, i figured my sh-t out, man i made london my own
[post-chorus]
3000 miles just to see if u ‘k
(whatcha’ looking for for)
3000 miles just to stay a few days
(who’re you living for for)
them or you
made a soft brexit so i could visit too
give me a pint of that london pride
i’ma always be there in the summertime, yeah
