**[Verse 1]** I'm waiting for the moment when the grey sky breaks A single ray of light shimmers on the Thames Someone's singing from the rooftops of Brixton And just for today, this city seems to breathe again **[Pre-Chorus]** My heart is pounding like it's backstage Maybe fear means I'm getting close to something real **[Chorus]** Break through the grey, let the light come in Raise your voice on the streets of Camden Fake it if you have to, we're still becoming real Waterloo, sunbreak, running wild Breathing life back into this city tonight **[Verse 2]** I walk these cobblestones, a thousand years beneath my feet But I choose today's step over history The smell of rain is gone, a new signal in the air This endless grey is carrying me somewhere **[Bridge]** My fingers are shaking as I reach for the mic There's no time to wait, I've got to jump tonight For one brief moment, this grey city turns to gold **[Chorus]** Break through the grey, let the light come in Raise your voice on the streets of Camden Fake it if you have to, we're still becoming real Waterloo, sunbreak, running wild Breathing life back into this city tonight **[Outro]** Under grey skies, today the whole world shined And that's enough, that's all I needed tonight
