I first met you on the corner
Between Rhye and Bailey Hill
And this never happens to me,
But time really did stop still
Now it’s been eighteen months since that night
And we’ve become good friends
And you’ve had a couple’ girlfriends
And you’ve shared about their ends
Well if I don’t tell you now
I never will, if I don’t tell you now
I never will, if I don’t tell you now
I never will.
You moved above the river
To a north London flat
And you asked me to come over
To open boxes, help unpack
And you started someone
She’s a law graduate
And when you told me, I went quiet
And you asked, what’s up with that?
Well if I don’t say it now
I never will, if I say it now
I never will, if I say it now, I never will.
Now it’s been four years I’m pregnant
and you moved to South of France
I met the guy in Mykonos
When he asked me out to dance
Then just like that you say it
That you’ve loved me all these years
You thought I wasn’t into you like that
And I burst into tears
I said I felt the same but I was
Held back by my fears
