about

A tale of an East End Starlet, you make up your mind what her back story is

lyrics

Sophia walks down Brick Lane
Is that tears in her eyes? Or is it just the rain?
She remembers the laughter, she remembers the pain
So much now has changed but all the heartbreak remains

From Hanbury Street to Sandy Row
All the secrets that these streets, these streets still know
From the barrow boys of Bethnal Green
In this city of stolen hearts and broken dreams
Your heart is so intwined
With the dirt and the noise on the Northern Line
Sophia, can’t you see how you’ll always be my pearly queen?

She sits in the Ten Bells hides herself away
But all the wine and the noise only helps those memories, fade to grey
They once was a time when they all knew her name
That East End star has now faded away
