Down by the station I caught her last train Thought she would be on it Guess I'd better think again The sun hits the window The glare leaves me blind I thought that I saw her But it was all in my mind She was always at a distance Just a few steps out of reach She worked at a little store Down on Brompton Street We'd walk downtown She'd show me where to go Now I can't go there Knowing what I know So take me to Harlesden And sit my right down Take me to Barkingside And walk me around Time is a-wasting Come down from the ride She said I was her only Deep down I knew she lied She said I was her only Deep down I knew she lied
