Meetings arranged, they say, never work out I say weve proved them wrong without a doubt I cant remember now just what we said I never could have guessed what lay ahead As I ran towards you up the stairs Did a voice in my ear cry Beware?
Even now Im surprised you recall Such a short time it took me to fall Pretending that my heart still lay elsewhere When in truth I had long ceased to care For what I thought Id never replace Til in my heart you left him no space
You say, you wonder what was it I saw? I say Oh, I dont recall anymore My first impressions have been left behind Replaced now by feelings and more lost in kind Sure that you know but you never can tell When I think I understand you so well Shakes me that you were a constant surprise Or so you appear in my eyes
Tempting to think now it will all be plain sailing Old enough now to know theres no such thing
