In this deeply emotional ballad, the singer is expressing the pain of a toxic relationship and her determination to end it. "Warwick Avenue" represents a meeting place where she plans to confront her partner about their failing relationship. She's been hurt and confused by his lack of genuine love for her, despite his claims. The repeated line "I want to be free" signifies her longing for liberation from this painful bond. The reference to the train illustrates missed opportunities and regret over time wasted in an unfulfilling relationship. Ultimately, it's a song about strength, self-respect, and the courage to walk away from something that no longer serves you positively.
Warwick Avenue
Lyrics
When I get to Warwick Avenue
Meet me by the entrance of the tube
We can talk things over a little time
promise me you won't step by the line
When I get to Warwick Avenue
Please drop the past and be true
Don't think we're OK just because I'm here
You hurt me bad but I won't shed a tear
I'm leaving you for the last time baby
You think you're loving but you don't love me
I've been confused outta' my mind lately
You think you're loving but I want to be free
Baby you've hurt me
When I get to Warwick Avenue oh
We'll spend an hour but no more than two
Our only chance to speak once more
I showed you the answers now here's the door
When I get to Warwick Avenue
I'll tell you baby, that we're through
I'm leaving you for the last time baby
You think you're loving but you don't love me
I've been confused outta my mind lately
You think you're loving but you don't love me
I want to be free, baby you've hurt me
All the days spent together, I wish for better
But I didn't want the train to come, now it's departed
I'm broken hearted, seems like we never started
All those things here together, when I wished for better
And I didn't want the train to come
You think you're loving, but you don't love me
I want to be free
Baby, you've hurt me, you don't love me
I want to be free, baby you've heard me
