Meet me in York
Meet me in St Louis
Okay then, York will do
I’m not such a romantic
I’m Yorkshire through and through
I’ll never send you flowers
No long walks in pouring rain
I’m really a big softie
I just can’t take the pain
I don’t do big surprises
I’m scared no one will come
It’s really very hard for me
To know you’re my only one
It was never meant to happen
I’m just not built for this
I was never meant to meet you
My very special Miss
I’m never going to tell you
How much you mean to me
It’s Yorkshire, men don’t do this
Especially not me
I love you more than life
Just thought that you should know
I doubt I’ll tell you this again
You’d better let it flow
I don’t go in for romance
Life’s not all hearts and flowers
I’m lucky that you found me girl
I’m so glad this love is ours
We’ll never speak of this again
From now on you own my heart
Only death can come between us
Until then we’ll never part.
PJ.
