Nuneaton (/nəˈniːtən/) is the largest town in the Borough of Nuneaton and Bedworth and in the English county of Warwickshire.
Nuneaton is most famous for its associations with the 19th century author George Eliot, who was born on a farm on the Arbury Estate just outside Nuneaton in 1819 and lived in the town for much of her early life. In her novel Scenes of Clerical Life (1858), "Milby" is the thinly disguised market town of Nuneaton.
The Nuneaton Urban Area is a conurbation based around Nuneaton and several surrounding towns and villages.
The town is located 9 miles (14 km) north of Coventry, 20 miles (32 km) east of Birmingham and 103 miles (166 km) northwest of London. The River Anker runs through the town. Nuneaton (as defined by the Office for National Statistics) had a population of 70,721 according to the 2001 census, though the 2008 estimate is closer to 73,000 inhabitants. However, both of these figures exclude the Camp Hill area of the town, which is deemed to be in the Hartshill subdivision of the Nuneaton urban area by the Office for National Statistics (ONS), as can be seen from the map included in its report on Key Statistics for urban areas and the dataset of this report, which cites a population of 12,207 for the Hartshill subdivision [1] (by comparison, the population of the civil parish of Hartshill in 2001 was just 3,611 [2]). A more representative figure is given by the combined population of Nuneaton's 11 wards, which was 78,403 in 2001 according to the ONS (see table below).
Roses R Red
Just to know that I will see you today
Makes me wake up early just to see your face
Makes that bus ride to school seem A-okay
Girl, i've never felt this way
I've never been in love to know just how it feels
And everytime I see you girl my heart beats are real
So if roses are real and violets are blue
Gilr what i'm trying to say
I think that i'm in love with you
Roses are red
Violets are blue girl
I'm not sure but I think i'm in love with you
With you that's right that's right
I'm not really sure but I think i'm in love with you
It's kind of strange to me
Now I know what to say
But till see your face
And then my mind just goes blank
the butterflies then come
And then my knees get weak
Girl I can hardly speak
As crazy as it seems
I don't want school to end
So that I can stare at you and try to pretend
So if roses are red and violets are blue
Girl what I am tryin to say
I think that i'm in love with you
Roses are red
Violets are blue girl
I'm not sure but I think i'm in love with you
With you that's right that's right
I'm not really sure but I think i'm in love with you
And everytime I see you girl my heartbeats are real
So if roses are red and violets are blue
Girl what I am trying to say
I think that i'm in love with you
Roses are red
Violets are blue girl
I'm not sure but I think i'm in love with you
With you that's right that's right
I'm not really sure but I think i'm in love with you
