Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My head is spinning round
My heart is in my shoes, yeah
I went and set the Thames on fire
Now I must come back down
[Verse 2]
She's laughing in her sleeve, boys
I can feel it in my bones
But anywhere, anywhere I'm gonna lay my head, boys
I will call my home
[Verse 3]
Well, I see that the world is upside down, yeah
Seems that my pockets were filled up with gold
Now the clouds, well, they've covered everything over
And the wind is blowing cold
[Verse 4]
Well, I don't need anybody
Because I learned, I learned to be alone
And I say anywhere, anywhere
Anywhere I lay my head, boys
I will call my home
