Love between a member of the British royalty and a commoner.
Take the train to Londontown;I will meet you there.
We will find a trysting place, near Trafalgar Square.
On the train to Londontown, sit not by my side.
We will meet in Londontown, no one will know we lied.
Though my eyes dare not recognize you, my mind possesses you.
My arms dare not to hold you, yet my heart caresses you.


Would to God our love could be; He knows I love you so.
Would to God our love could be, and all the world to know.
You'll be home at teatime and no one will ever know,
That together on the train, to Londontown we go.
When our time of love is over, and it's time to take the train,
I'll be thinking of you 'til it's time to meet again.


Ere the night curtain falls, you'll be safe within the castle walls.
Will you be thinking of me before the night bird calls?
I'll be thinking of you ere you're fast asleep.
If ever I should lose you, these memories I'll keep.
Why was I born a commoner, and you to royalty?
Will there be no tomorrow for you and for me?


We know not what tomorow brings, when this life we shall depart.
If you should die tomorrow, you'd live forever in my heart.
If the sun forgets to shine, down from above,
I will warm you with the fire of my love.
And if the stars neglect to shine, down from the skies,
I will light your way with the lovelight in my eyes.
