Until that day, my life had been a river Following the same predestinated course Suddenly detouring so unexpectedly With uncompromising forces
My strongholds broke down all too easily I remember well how it did embarrass me I hung on to his every smile Marveled at his style
Just like that He walked into my house as smug as a cat He was handsome and smart Walked away with my heart
Just like that He found a temporary home in my flat Telling innocent lies Throwing dust in my eyes But I led him on Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Just like that As though he only stopped a while for a chat But my secrets he learned Leaving no stone unturned
And once again the river's flowing slowly Following its safe and uneventful course Now the tears have dried It's become a pleasant break I recall without remorse But now and then I wonder where he is And I will admit he had something that I miss I guess he was a rolling stone The only one I've known
Just like that He walked into my house as smug as a cat He was handsome and smart Walked away with my heart
Just like that He found a temporary home in my flat Telling innocent lies Throwing dust in my eyes But I led him on Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Just like that As though he only stopped a while for a chat But my secrets he learned Leaving no stone unturned
Just like that He walked into my house as smug as a cat He was handsome and smart Walked away with my heart
Just like that As though he only stopped a while for a chat But my secrets he learned Leaving no stone unturned
