Soho square
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
Before my birthday
Before my birthday
One day youll be waiting 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 beforemy birthday
I hope I see those pigeons fly before my birthday
In Soho Square on my birthday
In Soho Square on my birthday
