Peyton Place Lyrics - Squeeze

(Difford/Tilbrook) 

In Peyton Place my heart now beats 

And floor boards creak where an angel sleeps 

Her hair hung across her face 

Like a bush hangs across a wall 

She was short with a tidy smile 

I could hear temptation call 

From a fly in her ointment 

To the big feather in her cap 

It's a small world we discover 

I had once worked for her dad 

I was in gear making up stories 

And we laughed at each other's tales 

I watched her lips I wanted to kiss them 

My train of thought went off the rails

In Peyton Place my heart now beats 

And floor boards creak where an angel sleeps 

In Peyton Place 

I lie awake and hear the sound 

That the angels make 

In Peyton Place

The party was now ending 

So she gave me a lift back home 

Somehow I felt so nervous 

She drove so slowly on the road 

Next thing I knew she was in my arms 

Her hair was all over my face 

I brushed it aside she invited me in 

Now my heart beats in Peyton Place 

Her hair hung across her face like 

A bush hangs across a wall
