Eros
On a Tuesday night she called, was away with the fairies
She said Hi, I'm Eliana, I come from Buenos Aires
Would you care to meet up tomorrow night?
I'm based in Paddington and I've just had a fight
Do you know the fountain? We could meet up there
Oh you mean Eros, close to Leicester Square
Our eyes did they meet, a cliché at first sight
A face thats so round, so mellow, so light
We talked in the cafe, our gaze never swaying
Two coffees please and each of us is paying
She wanted much more, than I could provide
A suggestion of love, on the train we could ride
That night in question, at Welling (New Jersey)
Emotion flowed out, like water from the Mersey
You would never have thought, we'd become lovers
No one else knows, not even our mothers
