about

In their live shows, Roundabouts is introduced to the crowd as the band’s love letter to London.
Powerful in its testament to the reality of chasing ambition, it is the first song the three wrote
together after moving to the city, making it fitting as their debut release.

lyrics

When you rain like that it's harder to walk
Switching from jeans to coats
Yes I’m learning
And I still get lost on the way to tube stops
But the girl on the corner helps me
You can thank your sister for leading me to you
Clifton Bridge was pointing
To the Thames in the distance calling my name
Little did I know what I was yearning
From country roads
To pub dress codes
To feeling like I was flying
London Town will break you down
Before you know you’re rising
I’ve been running round your roundabouts
Wont stop till I got you all figured out
And I can
Won't get lost in the sights
I won't hide in your lights
Stay alive through the night
Riding the 149 over London Bridge
It's easy to see why people love you
From those on the street
To the guy who sits back seat
There is
Hope in the air you’ll make them brand new
And I can’t lie I’ve been looking to find
Something here that makes me feel complete
So if you could send me a sign on the 149
And just stop hiding it in the concrete
From country roads
To pub dress codes
To feeling like I was flying
London Town will break you down
Before you know you’re flying
I’ve been running round your roundabouts
Wont stop till I got you all figured out
And I can

Won't get lost in the sights
I won't hide in your lights
Stay alive through the night
I’ve been spinning round these lazytowns
Think that I lost who I really am
And I can
Won't get lost in the sights
I won't hide in your lights
Stay alive through the night

I’ve been running round your roundabouts
Wont stop till I got you all figured out
And I can
Won't get lost in the sights
I won't hide in your lights
Stay alive through the night
I’ve been spinning round these lazytowns
Think that I lost who I really am
And I can
Won't get lost in the sights
I won't hide in your lights
Stay alive through the night
I’ve been running round your roundabouts
Wont stop till I got you all figured out
And I can
Won't get lost in the sights
I won't hide in your lights
Stay alive through the night
