I fell asleep on your sofa and had a dream about a small child in dungarees
Who caught his hands in the doors of the Paris metro
Then my face cracked open and you were there
You were there dressed in green saying something obscene
But that's why I came here in the first place,
Oh well that and the tea
Can I stay here lying under the table together with you now
Can I hold you forever in acrylic afternoons
I want to hold you tight
Whilst children play outside and wait for their mother to finish with lovers
And call them inside for their tea
Cushions and TV and the table’s set for tea
One for you, one for me
Come and lie down on the settee in that green jumper
You can have anything you want
Аnd the clock is saying it's half past four
But you know
You know I wanna
I want to stay a little more
I want to stay a little more
Can I stay here lying under the table together with you now
Can I hold you forever in acrylic afternoons
I want to hold you tight
Whilst children play outside and wait for their mother to finish with lovers
And call them inside for their tea
On a pink quilted eiderdown
I want to pull your knickers down
Net curtains blow slightly in the breeze
Lemonade light filtering thru the trees
It's so soft and it's warm
Just another cup of tea please (one lump thanks…)
Can I stay here lying under the table together with you now
Can I hold you forever in acrylic afternoons
I want to hold you tight
Whilst children play outside and wait for their mother to finish with lovers
And call them inside for their tea
Diane, Heather, Rachel come home
