"Hey Siobhan" lyrics

"Hey Siobhan"

Hey Siobhan
Where have you been?
I kissed you under rowan leaves
As our friends were walking ahead
And you took me down where the alleyways led

Everyone knows
There's nowhere to go tonight
Won't you slip out just you and I?
Won't you slip out into the quiet?

When I get downstairs
With the sun on my eyelids, I
And the horse guards broke up somebody's party
Streamers in the night
There you go
At your door
Putting on your little boy's shoes
At the start of the day
And you close your eyes
And you walk away

Dear Kathleen
What do you know?
There's a place I see us both
On a still Edwardian street
With the daylight moon impossibly clear

Everyone knows
There's nowhere to go tonight
Won't you slip out just you and I?
Won't you slip out into the quiet?
