Knee Socks

Lyrics

You got the lights on in the afternoon
 And the nights are drawn out long
 And you're kissin' to cut through the gloom
 With a cough drop coloured tongue
 And you were sittin' in the corner with the coats all piled high
 And I thought you might be mine
 In a small world, on an exceptionally rainy Tuesday night
 In the right place and time
 When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
 When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
 When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
 And your knee socks
 ♪
 Well, you cured my January blues
 Yeah, you made it all alright
 I've got a feelin' I might have lit the very fuse
 That you were tryin' not to light
 You were a stranger in my phonebook I was actin' like I knew
 'Cause I had nothin' to lose
 When the winter's in full swing and
 Your dreams just aren't comin' true
 Ain't it funny what you'll do?
 When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
 When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
 When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
 And your knee socks
 The late afternoon, the ghost in your room
 That you always thought didn't approve
 Of you knockin' boots
 Never stopped you lettin' me get hold
 Of the sweet spot by the scruff of your
 Knee socks
 You and me could have been a team
 Each had a half of a king and queen seat
 Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
 You could be my baby
 You and me could have been a team
 Each had a half of a king and queen seat
 Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
 You could be my baby
 You and me could have been a team
 Each had a half of a king and queen seat
 Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
 You could be my baby
 You and me could have been a team
 Each had a half of a king and queen seat
 Like the beginnin' of Mean Streets
 You could be my baby
 When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
 When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
 When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
 And your knee socks
 When the zeros line up on the 24 hour clock
 When you know who's callin' even though the number is blocked
 When you walked around your house wearin' my sky blue Lacoste
 And your knee socks
