i fell asleep on your sofa ,
and had a dream about a small child ,
in dungarees ,
who caught his hands in the doors of the paris metro .
then my face cracked open and you were there ,
you were there dressed in green ,
saying something obscene .
but that’s why i came here in the first place ,
oh well that and the tea .
Am Dm
can i stay here ,
F E
lying under the table together with you now?
can i hold you?
forever in acrylic afternoons
i want to hold you tight
whilst children play outside
and wait for their mothers to finish with lovers
and call them inside for their tea .
Am – Am – Am – G – G – F – G – G
Am – Am – Am – G – G – F – G – G
cushions and tv ,
and the table set for tea .
one for you , one for me .
come and lie down on the settee ,
in that green jumper ,
you can have anything you want .
and the clock is saying ,
it’s half past four but you know ,
i want to stay a little more .
Am Dm
can i stay here ,
F E
lying under the table together with you now?
can i hold you?
forever in acrylic afternoons
i want to hold you tight
whilst children play outside
and wait for their mothers to finish with lovers
and call them inside for their tea .
Am – Am – Am – G – G – F – G – G
Am – Am – Am – G – G – F – G – G
on a pink quilted eiderdown ,
i want to pull your knickers down .
net curtains blow slightly in the breeze .
lemonade light filtering through the trees .
it’s so soft and it’s warm .
just another cup of tea please ( one lump thanks ) .
Am Dm
can i stay here ,
F E
lying under the table together with you now?
can i hold you?
forever in acrylic afternoons
i want to hold you tight
whilst children play outside
and wait for their mothers to finish with lovers
and call them inside for their tea .
oh kevin , shane , julie , diane , wayne , frank ,
heather , rachel , chelsea , leanne , come home .
it’s time for your tea .
