This happened once before
when I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn't you
but I saw you peep through
your window
.
I saw the light
I saw the light
I know that you saw me
'cause I looked up to see
your face
.
I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
that's a lie
'cause I know where you've been
I saw you walk in
your door
.
I nearly died
I nearly died
'cause you walked hand in hand
with another man
in my place
.
If I were you
I'd realize that I
love you more
than any other guy
And I'll forgive
the lies that I
heard before
when you gave me no reply
.
