Fall in love with places, fall in love with British ground
Stamp your feet into the soil and feel the dirt, smell the seven corners carried around from across the world
Feel it come and go, the freedom of lost and new friendships crowned
All this to be experienced through a wisp changing-you waiting to be curled
Embrace the extroverted dusty and glimmering noises at night
And watch the hours fall prey
Embrace the elegant understanding of an omnipresent culture during the day
And watch your mind ignite
Dance and swirl to be recognised, jump hard and crawl deep
What you have to offer has not yet been put to sleep
Become the city’s excess people want to remember when at home
Fall in love with the city, fall in love with the marathon
And with joy make it yours safe to roam
Welcome my friend to London
