D6 Cmaj7 D6
Meetings arranged, they say, never work out
Cmaj7 D6
I say we’ve proved them wrong without a doubt
Cmaj7 D6
I can’t remember now just what we said
Cmaj7 A7
I never could have guessed what lay ahead
G6 A7
As I ran towards you up the stairs
G6 A7sus4 D6
Did a voice in my ear cry “Beware”?
Cmaj7 D6 x2
Cmaj7 D6
Even now I’m surprised you recall
Cmaj7 D6
Such a short time it took me to fall
Cmaj7 D6
Pretending that my heart still lay elsewhere
Cmaj7 A7
When in truth I had long ceased to care
G6 A7
For what I thought I’d never replace
G6 Asus4 D6
‘Til in my heart you left him no space
Cmaj7 D6 x2
Cmaj7 D6
You say, you wonder what was it I saw?
Cmaj7 D6
I say “Oh, I don’t recall anymore”
Cmaj7 D6
My first impressions have been left behind
Cmaj7 F6
Replaced now by feelings and more lost in kind
G F6
Sure that you know but you never can tell
G F6
When I think I understand you so well
G F6
Shakes me that you were a constant surprise
G A D6
Or so you appear in my eyes
Cmaj7 D6 (x2)
Cmaj7 D6
Tempting to think now it will all be plain sailing
Cmaj7 D6
Old enough now to know there’s no such thing
