Soho Square — текст песни (Kirsty Maccoll)

(kirsty maccoll/mark e. nevin)



Your name froze on the winter air

An empty bench in soho square

Forgotten now I turn away

Just save me for a rainy day

But dont be sorry

I dont want to hear it baby



My feet froze in the winter chill

I knew Id probably get ill

But I was praying we could fill

An empty bench and still

Youre so sorry

But I dont want your pity baby



Its all yours now please dont tease

The pigeons shiver in the naked trees

And Ill do anything but

Please dont hurt me

Just kiss me quick

cos its my birthday

And I feel so small

I dont know why

But no Im not too old to cry



An empty bench in soho square

If youd have come youd have found me there

But you never did cos you dont care

And Im so sorry baby

I dont mind loneliness too much

But when I met you I was touched

And that was good enough for me

But do we always have to be sorry

Why cant we just be happy baby?



One day youll be waiting there

No empty bench in soho square

And well dance around like we dont care

And Ill be much too old to cry

And youll kiss me quick in case I die

Before my birthday



One day youll be waving there

No empty bench in soho square

No I dont know the reason why

Ill love you till the day I die

But one day youll be waiting there

Come summertime in soho square

And Ill be painting stars up in the sky

Before I get too old to cry

Before my birthday

I hope I see those pigeons fly

Before my birthday

In soho square on my birthday
