If you could live anywhere in the world, where would it be?
I’ve been to many places
I’ve often lived abroad
But if I could choose
a special place
I’d live on Richmond Hill.
Property‘s expensive
Which makes it just a dream
But I have lived quite near to here
And know it very well.
Richmond can be stunning
It’s got some splendid views.
Yet it’s near to London
And all you can find there.
If you’ve seen Ted Lasso
Perhaps you’ll know the place?
It’s really nice on Richmond Green
Where you can take a stroll.
Or walk along the river
For yet more pleasant views
Or head back to the High Street
Where there are decent shops.
If you tire of townscape
Then head for Richmond Park
It’s eight miles round
Green rolling hills
And herds of roaming deer.
Just across the river
If you‘re into sport
The national rugby stadium
And Harlequins as well.
Harlequins my favourite team
I’d love to be near them
And all the pubs and restaurants
We’d have to visit them.
If you like to travel
Heathrow’s not too far
Be on a plane to anywhere
I couldn’t ask for more.
‘Where London meets the Countryside’
Is how they bill themselves.
I couldn’t ask for too much more
A splendid place to live.
