I wish you would have smiled in the bakery   or sat on a tatty seatee   at a mutual friends 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 have 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 rounders pitch or the canteen   you're slacking love were have you been   just have to go and wait until tonight      to give me the invite   don't worry it's alright      I wish I would have seen you down in the arcade   sippin' on a lemonade   in the paper cup and chewin on a straw      and I wish I would have seen you in the bakery   but if I'd seen you in the bakery   you probably wouldn't have seen me
