Knee Socks

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 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
