Buffet tea for two, a farewell kiss for you
I climb aboard and shut that door, we're through
I'm on the train and then I look back once again
Before I know what's happening, we're moving

To a new start, a new city
Leaving you my pretty
It's not so hard as not leaving there at all
Been knowing you for so long
The habit just seemed wrong
I got things to do and it seems like that's the cure

Think of her a while, and I offer no denial
I'm excited like it's out of style, oh it's thrilling
Bedsit by the tube, evening dinner too
Steady job, good prospects duе, if I'm willing

To a new start, a new city
Leaving you my prеtty
It's not so hard as not leaving there at all
Been knowing you for so long
The habit just seemed wrong
I got things to do and it seems that's the cure

[solo]

We just passed some boats
There can't be far to go
Man up train is putting on his coat, we're slowing
Yes St. Pancras here I come
I raced them all and won
On the platform and I run, and well I'm running

To a new start, a new city
Leaving you my pretty
It's not so hard as not leaving there at all
Been knowing you for so long
The habit just seemed wrong
I got things to do, it seems that that's the cure
