On a Christmas cake day one Friday in August

In a book shop in Charing Cross Road

I first set eyes on a girl and at once I didn't know

She had eyes like a poet and hair like a rainbow

Reflecting the lights that did glow

And the sadness she kept in her eyes

Struck my senses a blow

And so as by chance at the touch of a glance

We could find ourselves out in the road

With no crush of time to defeat us and no place to go

And I couldn't say how but the coffee bar crowd

Had appeared through the silence that broke

And she said Ł˘Oh my father's a judge in St Albans you know.Ł˘

Oh well, then perhaps I could help you

You know that St. Albans is miles away

And I've got a room in Swiss Cottage in which you could stay

She laughed Ł˘Oh I couldn't do that, for I've got to be up in the

Morning you see.Ł˘

So I rang up to find out the first morning train she could take.

And so in the gloom of a candlelit room

With spaghetti, two forks and plate

She said Ł˘Oh I really would like to be free and escape.Ł˘

Oh well if it's like that, you don't have to go back

And you're perfectly welcome to stay

Ł˘But I've not finished school yet.Ł˘ she said as she got into bed

And so as she slept and the pure morning crept through the windows

To take her away

I thought you can't make people be what you want them to be

I could see my self nailed to a dormitory tale of a holiday night's

Escapade

And just yesterday she had seemed like a woman to me

And so like a child with the sleep in her eyes

Where the sadness of age had once been

She left on the train with a Ł˘See you againŁ˘ and a smile

And I couldn't say what I had won or I lost

Or even just what I had seen

But when I'm alone I just think of her once in awhile.
