Walking through a London May
Revealed a blossom in kaleidoscopic fields of grey
And when I wrote to you
I told you recent parks that I had seen
Some were manicured and all were very green
I had a room in Camden Town
In the afternoon I often like to walk around
And it's very nice
To have the time to do with what you will
So I followed the canal to Primrose Hill
And though I try to ignore
There's a feeling now that wasn't there before
Oh, and I know that my heart knows what to do
'Cause I only want to spend my time with you
I climbed the hill on New Years Day
It was colder then but still I couldn't keep away
And though the sun was out
There was a little frosting on the ground
And all the dogs were too polite to make a sound
And though I try to ignore
There's a feeling now that wasn't there before
Oh, and I know that my heart knows what to do
'Cause I only want to spend my time with you
