You got the lights on in the afternoon
|
And the nights are drawn out long
|
And you're kissing to cut through the gloom
|
With a cough drop coloured tongue
|
And you were sitting in the corner with the coats all piled high
|
And I thought you might be mine
|
In a small world on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
|
In the right place and time
|
|
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
|
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
|
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
|
And your knee socks
|
|
Well you cured my January blues
|
Yeah you made it all alright
|
I got a feeling I might have lit the very fuse
|
That you were trying not to light
|
You were a stranger in my phonebook I was acting like I knew
|
'Cause I had nothing to lose
|
When the winter's in full swing and your dreams just aren't coming true
|
Ain't it funny what you'll do
|
|
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
|
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
|
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
|
And your knee socks
|
|
The late afternoon
|
The ghost in your room that you always thought didn't approve of you knocking boots
|
Never stopped you letting me get hold of the sweet spot by the scruff of your
|
Knee socks
|
|
You and me could have been a team
|
Each had a half of a king and queen seat
|
Like the beginning of Mean Streets
|
You could Be My Baby
|

(All the zeros lined up but the number's blocked when you've come undone)
|
|
When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
|
When you know who's calling even though the number is blocked
|
When you walked around your house wearing my sky blue Lacoste
|
And your knee socks
