She stayed with me until
She moved to Notting Hill
She said it was the place she had to be.
Where the cocaine is Free Trade
And frequently displayed
Is the Buena Vista Social club CD
I thought she'd be back in 3 weeks
And we'd go wandering The Peaks
Sojourn in my Uncle Joe's ashram
For when you're in Matlock Bath
You don't need Sylvia Plath
Not while they've got Mrs Gibson's jam
Alas I'm brooding alone by the runnel
While she's in Capri with her swain
And the light at the end of the tunnel
Is the light of an oncoming train
Well we both grew up in Eyam
And strange as it may seem
Neither of us thought we'd ever leave
But the beak in Leek is weak
And she's moved in, so to speak,
With featureless TV producer Steve.
And now it's all Eva Cassidy
And aphids in Picardy
And so I can only ascertain
That the light at the end of the tunnel
Is the light of an oncoming train
No frills, handy for the hills
Thats the way you spell New Mills
Alas I'm brooding alone by the runnel
While she's in Capri with her swain
And the light at the end of the tunnel
Is the light of an oncoming train
Is the light of an oncoming train
