sixteen years old
looking for a hideaway
i'm a set designer
my mum and dad
thinking i'm gay
i'm a lazy bugger
but i like my sport
like girls and music
i'm happy
happy sort
but there's one thing i'm lacking
it's sexual experience
so i ask you
my sweetheart
save me from this wilderness
i've dreamed
honey
of a night like this
where i come from
love is
just a hole in the wall
and the steel mills ring out and generations
heed the call
and the rain never stops and the skies are grey
and the chance of romance
slim as a bright sunny day
this is partly the reason
i'm so overwhelmed and shy
because your beauty
by contrast
is gonna make a young man cry
i've dreamed
honey
of a night like this
i've schemed
honey
of a night like this
you don't know what it means to a boy from
a suburban home
to be left with a woman like you
completely alone
i've dreamed
honey
of a night like this
nice place you've got here
babe
never seen a house like this
pool like an ocean
bed like a football pitch
all the guys at the boozer
won't believe my luck
but it couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke
so here we are
the record's
gotten stuck in the groove
my knees are trembling
c'mon baby
make a move
i've dreamed
honey
of a night like this
i've schemed
honey
of a night like this
i've dreamed
i've schemed
honey
of a night like this
i've dreamed
honey
of a night like this
