Peyton Place

(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
