The Bakery

I wish you would've smiled in the bakery
 Or sat on a tatty settee
 At some mutual friend's gathering
 And the more you keep on looking, the more it's hard to take
 Love, we're in stalemate
 To never meet is surely where we're bound
 There's one in every town
 Just there to grind you down
 ♪
 I wish I would've seen you in the post office
 Well, maybe I did and I missed it
 Too busy with the mind on clever lines
 Why not the rounder's pitch or the canteen
 You're slacking, love, where have you been?
 Just had to go and wait until tonight
 ♪
 (To give me the invite, don't worry it's alright)
 ♪
 I wish I would've seen you down in the arcade
 Sipping on a lemonade
 In the paper cup, and chewing on the straw
 And I wish I'd seen you in the bakery
 But if I'd seen you in the bakery
 ♪
 You probably wouldn't have seen me
