.
The leaves of brown came falling through the view,
In Berkeley Mews, I first met you,
I staggered through your chilly dining room,
In Berkeley Mews, I first met you.
.
Your kitchen sink was cluttered up,
So I put the shutter up forlornly
I brewed another cuppa up
And tried to sneak out early in the morning.
.
I thought you had much better things to do,
In Berkeley Mews, I first met you,
Drowned my conversation with champagne,
In Berkeley Mews, was not listening.
.
I thought you were an intellect,
But now that I reflect, you left me reeling.
You made me drink a toast
And when you finished I was looking at the ceiling.
.
The floods of tears I've wept thinking of you,
Remind me of that night in Berkeley Mews.
You know that you left me broken hearted,
In Berkeley Mews.
