The Bakery lyrics

I wish you would have 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 have seen you in the post office

Well, maybe I did and I missed it

Too busy with a mind on clever rhymes

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

So give me the invite

Don't worry, it's alright

I wish I would have 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

If I'd seen you in the bakery

You probably wouldn't have seen me
