[Favorite Song Lyrics: song “Waterloo Sunset” with perfect lyrics for karaoke]

[Verse 1]

Dirty old river, must you keep rolling
Flowing into the night?
People so busy, make me feel dizzy
Taxi light shines so bright

[Pre-Chorus]

But I don't need no friends
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in paradise

[Chorus]

(Sha-la-la)
Every day I look at the world from my window
(Sha-la-la)
But chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine (Waterloo sunset's fine)

[Verse 2]

Terry meets Julie, Waterloo station
Every Friday night
But I am so lazy, don't want to wander
I stay at home at night

[Pre-Chorus]

But I don't feel afraid
As long as I gaze on Waterloo sunset
I am in paradise

[Chorus]

(Sha-la-la)
Every day I look at the world from my window
(Sha-la-la)
But chilly, chilly is the evening time
Waterloo sunset's fine (Waterloo sunset's fine)

[Verse 3]

Millions of people swarming like flies 'round
Waterloo underground
But Terry and Julie cross over the river
Where they feel safe and sound

[Pre-Chorus]

And they don't need no friends
As long as they gaze on Waterloo sunset
They are in paradise

[Outro]

Waterloo sunset's fine (Waterloo sunset's fine, Waterloo sunset's fine)

    Ray and Dave Davies recall the song’s evolution –

    We started ad-libbing vocal parts around the chorus (Dave).
    Until [the song] became like a pebble which had been rounded off by the sea … perfectly smooth. I was embarrassed by how personal [the lyrics] were.It was like an extract from a diary nobody was allowed to read (Ray).
