We were down and out in London
Sharing beds and sharing money
But we were satisfied
With our hot milk and honey
For the young and beautiful
Live a life with no regrets
So let's toast to a short lived love
And drink to all the rest

I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
Darling, I'm leaving this dreary town
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
When there's greener pastured waiting to be found

You looked with eyes that knew me
Mine were the same for you
I'd seen you from the start
And the changes you'd gone through
When there's nothing that you could hide
I could see straight through your act
And there's nothing that can be done
About things said in the past

I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
Darling, I'm leaving this dreary town
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
When there's greener pastured waiting to be found

I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
Darling, I'm leaving this dreary town
I'm not gonna follow you to the ground
When there's greener pastured waiting to be found
