Lovers' lane
A Lovers' lane is a secluded area where people kiss, make out, or sometimes engage in sexual activity. These areas range from parking lots in secluded rural areas to places with extraordinary views of a cityscape or other feature.
"Lovers' lanes" are typically found in cultures built around the automobile—lovers often make out in a car or van for privacy.
Lovers' lanes have existed for centuries, sometimes as places for secret meetings with a loved one or as a euphemism for red-light districts and other areas of prostitution.
The Oxford English Dictionary records use of the phrase "lovers' lane" from 1853.

16 Lovers Lane
16 Lovers Lane was the sixth album by Australian indie rock group The Go-Betweens, released in 1988 by Beggars Banquet Records. Prior to the recording of the album, longtime bassist Robert Vickers left the band when the other group members decided to return to Australia after having spent several years in London, England; he was replaced by John Willsteed. The album was recorded at Studios 301 in Sydney, between Christmas 1987 and Spring 1988.
16 Lovers Lane was the final release from the original version of the band. The Go-Betweens broke up in 1989 and would produce no other material until Grant McLennan and Robert Forster reformed the band, with a completely different line-up of personnel, in 2000.
Details
In late 1987 the band relocated from the UK to Sydney, with the relationship between Forster and Morrison dissolving whilst McLennan and Brown becoming more involved. Upon their return to Australia the band added John Willsteed on bass and began preparing their sixth album.

Lover's Lane
by: Richard ThompsonFalse hand in false hand
Down Lovers' Lane, we walked, we two
Love sold for fool's gold
Down Lovers' Lane, we walked, we two
On your back I'll climb
Or you climb on mine
Deception is the rule
Down Lovers' Lane
Fine friend, fine friend
I held such dreams in my caress
Fine airs, fine airs
The best of manners and address
On your back I'll climb
Or you climb on mine
Deception is the rule
