The Bakery
I wish you would have smiled in the bakeryOr sat on a tatty setteeAt some mutual friend's gathering
And the more you keep on lookingThe more it's hard to takeLove, we're in stalemate
To never meet is surely where we're boundThere's one in every townJust there to grind you down
I wish I would have seen you in the post officeWell, maybe I did and I missed itToo busy with a mind on clever rhymes
Why not the rounder's pitch or the canteen?You're slacking, love, where have you been?Just had to go and wait until tonight
So give me the inviteDon't worry, it's alright
I wish I would have seen you down in the arcadeSipping on a lemonadeIn the paper cup and chewing on the straw
And I wish I'd seen you in the bakeryIf I'd seen you in the bakeryYou probably wouldn't have seen me
