Little London Girl
Greyson Chance Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I shut the door
And I step outside
It's close to midnight
And the fog is in
And the street lights

With the sound of Big Ben
It reminded me
It was only yesterday
When we first met in that cafe
And our worlds entwined.

Oh don't you know?
I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops now, baby
I'm ready to go.
Oh don't you know?
It doesn't matter if the sun is going down on me
You light my world
My little London girl.

Sunglasses on
You take me to Camden Town
As you share your headphones
With the Kinks and the Rolling Stones.

As you walk around
In your leather boots
All the boys are staring
But you're not caring
'Cause you're so rock and roll (so rock and roll)
Whoa

Oh don't you know?
I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops now, baby
I'm ready to go.
Oh don't you know?
It doesn't matter if the sun is going down on me
You light my world
My little London girl.

(Yeah) You light my world
(Yeah) You light my world
(Yeah) You light my world
(Yeah) You light my world
(Yeah) You light my world
World
Oh don't you know?
We're gonna shout it from the rooftops now, baby
Are you ready to go?
Oh don't you know?
You light my world
My little London
Girl don't you know?
I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops now, baby
I'm ready to go.
Oh don't you know?
It doesn't matter if the sun is going down on me




You light my world
My little London girl.

Line by Line Meaning

I shut the door
I closed the door behind me


And I step outside
I've just stepped outside


It's close to midnight
It's almost 12 am


And the fog is in
There's fog all around


And the street lights
The street lights are on


With the sound of Big Ben
I can hear Big Ben's chimes


It reminded me
It brought back memories


It was only yesterday
It feels like it wasn't long ago


When we first met in that cafe
We met for the first time in a cafe


And our worlds entwined.
And our lives merged and connected


Oh don't you know?
Do you not realize?


I'm gonna shout it from the rooftops now, baby
I want everyone to know and I will tell them loudly


I'm ready to go.
I'm ready to embark on a new journey


It doesn't matter if the sun is going down on me
Even if things are tough, you make them easier


You light my world
You bring happiness to my life


My little London girl.
My love in London


Sunglasses on
Wearing sunglasses


You take me to Camden Town
You take me to Camden Town


As you share your headphones
You share your earbuds with me


With the Kinks and the Rolling Stones.
Listening to the Kinks and Rolling Stones music


As you walk around
As you move around


In your leather boots
Wearing leather boots


All the boys are staring
All the boys are looking at you


But you're not caring
But you don't care


'Cause you're so rock and roll (so rock and roll)
Because you have such a rock and roll attitude


Whoa
Expressing surprise or excitement


(Yeah) You light my world
You bring joy to my life


World
The world we live in


We're gonna shout it from the rooftops now, baby
We'll tell everyone about our love, loudly


Are you ready to go?
Are you ready to join me on this journey?


Girl don't you know?
Don't you realize, my love?
