Well it happened years ago when you lived on Stanhope Road. We
listened to your sister when she came home from school 'cos she
was
two years older and she had boys in her room. We listened
outside and
heard her. Alright. Well that was alright for a while but soon I
wanted
more. I want to see as well as hear and so I hid inside her
wardrobe.
And she came round four and she was with some kid called David
from
the garage up the road I listened outside I heard her. Alright.
Oh I want
to take you home. I want to give you children. You might be my
girlfriend, yeah. When I saw you next day I really couldn't tell
'cos you
might go and tell your mother. And so you went with Neve and
Neve
was coming on and I thought I heard you laughing when his Mum
and
Dad were gone. I listened outside, I heard you. Alright. Oh I
want to
take you home...etc. Well I guess it couldn't last too long. I
came home
one day and all her things were gone, I fell asleep inside. I
never heard
her come. And then she opened up her wardrobe and I had to get
it on.
Oh, listen we were on the bed when you came home, I heard you
stop
outside the door. I know you won't believe it's true, I only
went with
her 'cos she looks like you. Oh I want to take you home...etc.
