Mrs Richards Woke Me Up Lyrics - Singles - Flying Circus

See her walking down the street, look the other way 

Just a brown-eyed girl who's walking away from me 

Who will ask her how she feels, she never talks to me 

She doesn't know who I am 

And if she did she wouldn't like me 

But I see her lips moving up and down, she doesn't say a word 

All she ever says to me is 

Sha la la la .... 

See her walking down the street, look the other way 

Just a brown-eyed girl who's way outa my league 

I hear she's got a place down on Arcadia Street 

Next to a park, so she likes living next to trees 

And if you wanna go out 

If you wanna go dancing, if you wanna get away 

We want the same thing, you and me baby 

And as I always say, Mrs Richards please 

I want that house that she's been living in 

And I don't know what I want anymore 

I don't know what I need 

And you woke me up in the middle of a dream 

Well, Joe comes around and says, "Car troubles, man 

And if it goes on like this we'll be stuck here for the next year or two 

But let's get a lift into town, let's go to Galleria 

Let's get a bottle of whiskey I got some dying to do 

Where'd that girl go now, where'd she run off to? 

I had her number, we could've had something really good 

Soon as you love something, it goes and dies on you 

And every silver lining has a cloud that wants to rain down on you 

And as I always say, Mrs Richards please 

I want that house that she's been living in 

And I don't know what I want anymore 

I don't know what I need 

And you woke me up in the middle of a dream 

How about that hole in the wall 

And if we live like this there'll be nothing left for us 

For me and you 

What if the sky falls, what if we see it coming? 

Give me a cigarette baby, I wanna die for you 

And as I always say, Mrs Richards please 

I want that house that she's been living in 

And I don't know what I want anymore 

I don't know what I need 

And you woke me up in the middle of a dream
