Over the railway lines Under the bridge Where we met first time I'm coming across town Walking to your house
Yesterday weighs you down O lonely girl won't you come on out I swear it'll be alright On this holy night
Chorus: Put on your red dress baby And wear your smile Say goodnight to your sister We're gonna walk for miles We'll go where the boats are leaving In St. George's Bay And when I look into your eyes There's one thing that I can say No one loves you this way So put on your red dress baby And one more time Let me see you smile
There's the abandoned train Where we sheltered from the rain Somehow I knew someday We'd come here again
Chorus: Put on your red dress baby And wear your smile Say goodnight to your sister We're gonna walk for miles We'll go where the boats are leaving In St. George's Bay And when I look into your eyes There's one thing that I can say No one loves you this way So put on your red dress baby And one more time Let me see you smile
Here on this empty road We stare at ourselves In a shop window Funny we seem so right On this holy night
Chorus: So put on your red dress baby And wear your smile Close the door right behind you We're gonna walk for miles We'll go where the boats are leaving In St. George's Bay And recall the tenderness As we sit by the waterside O I can never forget That I was the man who let you Slip out of his life So put on your red dress baby And let me one more time Make you smile tonight
