I know I didn't speak to you last night (I was too shy to talk) but
when I
passed you I thought
'Maybe this might be the time to spend a little time with you'.
I wanted to tell you just how much I liked that song, though I know
you're
not a singer you showed such style with the microphone. Wanted to find
out
what really makes you tick, but I never really gave myself the chance,
no
no.
And I don't want to seem mysterious, I just don't want to make it
obvious
that I could picture something good between us two.
And now I'm glad my shoes squeak so you could hear my footsteps on the
street -
Follow me home, we could talk all night long about everything that's
under
this old sun.
Did I get your intentions wrong every time that you smiled at me across
the
room.
Maybe I'm just foolish thinking that you might want more than this, but
I always want what I cannot have.
And I don't want to seem mysterious, I just don't want to make it
obvious
that I could picture something good between us two.
And now I'm glad my shoes squeak so you could hear my footsteps on the
street -
Follow me home, we could talk all night long about everything that's
ever
bothered you.
You walked out of my sight: when I turned left, well, you turned right,
and
I'd been hoping you'd be going my way
Cause they're turning out the street-lights as the bars shut up their
doors
for this night
And I'm walking these damp pavements alone.
And I don't want to seem mysterious, I just don't want to make it
obvious
that I could picture something good between us two.
And now I'm glad my shoes squeak so you could hear my footsteps on the
street -
Follow me home, we could talk all night long about your whole life
before
you met me.
I'm hoping you'll hear these words then maybe you'd come across and we
could
give this homeward walk another try
Cause I don't want to seem mysterious, I just don't want to make it
obvious
that I could picture something good between us two.
And now I'm glad my shoes squeak so you could hear my footsteps on the
street -
Follow me home, we could talk all night long
Then maybe you could kiss me come dawn.
