Lyrics
By The Canal
Words & Music by Marc Hockley
Out at night like a city fox
Taking caution; taking care
He knew he was being watched
Eyes were looking everywhere
I’ll meet you by the canal
She should have been here by now - Hot air
I’ll meet you by the canal
She should have been here by now - Hot air
As he passed by a red phone box
He heard the sound of braking glass
He looked down and checked his watch
It was almost twenty past
She should have been here by now
In a flash but without a sound
His story ended suddenly
As he fell to his knee’s & gasped
He saw her there with somebody
The story end here right now
