Cemeteries of London Lyrics » Coldplay

[Verse 1]
At night, they would go walkin’ ’til the breakin’ of the day
The mornin’ is for sleepin’
Through the dark streets, they go searchin’ to see God in their own way
Save the nighttime for your weepin’
Your weepin’
[Chorus]
Singin’ la-la-la-la-la-la-lay
And the night over London lay
[Verse 2]
So we rode down to the river where Victorian ghosts pray
For their curses to be broken
We go wander ‘neath the arches where the witches are, and they say
“There are ghost towns in the ocean”
The ocean
[Chorus]
Singin’ la-la-la-la-la-la-lay
And the night over London lay
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
God is in the houses, and God is in my head
And all the cemeteries of London
I see God come in my garden, but I don’t know what he said
For my heart, it wasn’t open
Not open

FAQs About Cemeteries of London

What did Coldplay say about “Cemeteries of London”?
Martin
: [This song] features our first use of handclaps on an album. But not the only time on this album.
Champion
: The Spanish flamenco clapping is incredible when you hear it done properly, although ours is a very crude and English version of it. It’s like more of a golf clap — “Good par!” — or some seals.
From a 2008
interview with MTV
.
How was the song made?
According to
Songfacts
, Martin explained to
Q magazine
:
I was mortified. But if you tell me to write a better song, I’ll do it. He said it was good but said it in a German way. If you come in wis ze song, it’s finished, complete, great, I will say it’s great. Zis is not finished, not complete and therefore I cannot say it’s great. So I was, OK, f-k you, man! And the next day I came in and played “Cemeteries Of London“.
What was the song inspired by?
According to
Songfacts
, bassist Guy Berryman explained to
Entertainment Weekly
:
When I imagine the song in my head, I see London in 1850. A hell of a lot of rain and men in top hats.
Martin said to newspaper
The Sun
:
It’s our attempt at a Smiths song. It’s about witch drownings. I was interested about that period in London where people were supposedly drowned for being a witch. And that’s where that song came from. About being accused of something you didn’t do.
