Muriel Street

Well meaning friends
Have taken me for a night out on the town
Well meaning friends
Seem to think that I am lonesome
They couldn't be more wrong
Because I've got places to go
People to meet
A boy named Tom waits for me
He lives below Muriel Street

Walls closing in
This public house is dark and feeling close
His salty skin
And tender touch are not so far away by the Regent's Canal
I think I'll just go for an amble down on the towpath
Tom, my Tom, has kisses sweet
He lives below Muriel Street

When the music gets too loud
I rock away from the crowd and into a daydream
And in that place I sometimes see things I had not before
Like that night in February
When you stepped out of the shape-shifting shadows
The moon and the stars gave their blessing

Oh I could listen all night long to those words you say you don't sing
Across the ages and back to this canal I can hear it echoing
I'm content with you my secret, hidden in plain sight
Believe me, magical things and marvellous happenings come by and by
And I've got someone to meet
Down below Muriel Street
I've got someone to meet
Way below Muriel Street
Oh I've got someone to meet
