| (difford/tilbrook) | |
| Tonight i take her from her parents | |
| I came along to her rescue | |
| Without a word about arrangements | |
| She came along without a clue | |
| So i said my love i want to take you | |
| A place i have inside my head | |
| And so it seemed i had to love you | |
| With some cards and separate beds | |
| Her mother didn't like me | |
| She thought i was on drugs | |
| My mother didn't like her | |
| She'd never peel the spuds | |
| So we took off together | |
| And stayed at mrs. smith's | |
| Breakfast at half seven | |
| Where you can view the cliffs | |
| The moon was full and in our window | |
| I could see her turning in her bed | |
| I was loved but all in limbo | |
| There was time to pass but not to spend | |
| Soon i saw that this was silly | |
| Spending all my wages on this peach | |
| When we could sit so very pretty | |
| And get our heads down out on the beach | |
| Her father seemed to like me | |
| I helped him fix his car | |
| My father seemed to like her | |
| And i couldn't see the harm | |
| In going off together | |
| To see the pier and lights | |
| So we could be together | |
| In separate beds tonight |
