The Bakery

I wish you would have smiled in the bakery Or sat on a tatty settee At a mutual friends gathering And the more you keep on looking The more it's hard to take Love we're in stalemate To never meet is surely where we're bound There's one in every town Just there to grind you down I wish I would have seen you in the post office Well maybe I did and I missed it Too busy with the mind on clever lines Why not the rounders pitch or the canteen You're slacking love were have you been? Just have to go and wait until tonight To give me the invite Don't worry it's alright I wish I would have seen you down in the arcade Sippin' on a lemonade In the paper cup and chewin' on a straw And I wish I would have seen you in the bakery But if I'd seen you in the bakery You probably wouldn't have seen me
