NINE MILLION BICYCLES

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing.
That’s a fact.
It’s a thing we can’t deny.
Like the fact that I will love you till I die.

We are twelve million light years from the edge.
That’s a guess.
No one can ever say it’s true.
But I know that I will always be with you.

I’m warm by the fire of your love everyday.
So don’t call me a liar.
Just believe everything that I say.

There are six billion people in the world.
More or less.
And it makes me feel quite small.
That you’re the one I love, most of all.

(instrumental)

We’re high on a wire, with the world in our side.
And I never tell you of the love that you give me every night.

There are nine million bicycles in Beijing.
That’s a fact.
It’s a thing we can’t deny.
Like the fact I love you till I die.

And there are nine million bicycles in Beijing.

And you know that I will love you till I die …
