Yes I know I'm late getting home tonight
Can supper wait I guess I've lost my appetite
Yes you can fix me a drink and any-thing's okay
Oh by the way I met a friend of yours today

I was way on the other side of town
And coming home I thought I'd stop and have a round
And in this bar I heard someone speak your name
And that's how I met a friend of yours today

I listened for a time and I could tell
That stranger there he knew you much too well
And I introduced myself and you should have seen his face
Oh what a shame I met a friend of yours today

Please don't cry woman cause it's much too late for tears
Yes I'm sorry too cause it hurts after all these years
And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way
And all because I met a friend of yours today
And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way
And all because I met a friend of yours today
