On London Bridge

Jo Stafford

I walked on London Bridge last night

I saw you by the lamppost light

Then bells rang out in sleepy Londontown

And London Bridge came tumbling down



The sky was hidden by a mist

But just like magic when we kissed

The moon and stars were shining all around

When London Bridge came tumbling down



Just you and I over the river

Two hearts suspended in space

And there so high over the river

A miracle tookplace



Two empty arms found love to hold

Two smoke rings turned to rings of gold

I bless the night we met in Londontown

When London Bridge came tumbling down



Just you and I over the river

Two hearts suspended in space

And there so high over the river

A miracle took place



I bow my head in silent prayer

And thank Him for the love we share

He blessed the night we met in Londontown

When London bridge came tumbling down
