Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Gaslight flickers on the cobblestone
Heavy footsteps lost in smoky air
Hunger underneath a shattered crown
Broken faces know he’s always there

[Chorus]
Jack is walking down the narrow road
Shadow moving where the lamplight fades
He’s a ghost with a copper heart
No one ever sees the wound he’s made

[Post-Chorus]
La la la, London lingers
La la la, alley fingers

[Verse 2]
In a fog-tied coat and tattered sleeves
Silent boots beneath the quarter moon
Every window closes, eyes like thieves
He hums a low unholy tune

[Pre-Chorus]
No one ever calls his name
But his laughter fills the cold
Daybreak never feels the same
When you’ve watched the story unfold

[Chorus]
Jack is walking down the narrow road
Shadow moving where the lamplight fades
He’s a ghost with a copper heart
No one ever sees the wound he’s made

[Post-Chorus]
La la la, London lingers
La la la, alley fingers

[Bridge]
Fog rolls deeper in the waking hour
Bootheels echo past the dying fire
Stolen faces in his faded mind
History forgets what desire conspires

[Verse 3]
Soot-stained jacket, hunger in his smile
One more secret no one wants to name
Pavement keeps his every step on file
Stories vanish but the fear remains

[Chorus]
Jack is walking down the narrow road
Shadow moving where the lamplight fades
He’s a ghost with a copper heart
No one ever sees the wound he’s made

[Post-Chorus]
La la la, London lingers
La la la, alley fingers
La la la, footsteps linger
