Lyrics

The Meeting Place [Home Demo]

Meet you in the secret place

Scuffling in the dirt I wait

Whistle will blow, whistle will blow

Share a joke the laugh's on me

But when I get you on your own we'll see

Someone might hear, someone might hear

You're a working girl now

You've got money of your own

Hmmm the meeting place

Hmmm the meeting place

Strolling under grimy skies

Machines that make you kiss in time

Smoke on your breath, smoke on your breath

Chimney never looked so good

Never looked the way it should

From lying in the bracken wood

Coat on the ground, coat on the ground

Take a walk down the lane

We'll be late back again

Hmmm the meeting place

Hmmm the meeting place [x3]
