Like in the hall of mirrors
You look different today
He saw you coming out of Etam
And it struck him how you'd changed

Was it that you looked slimmer?
Or had you dyed your hair?
As you were feigning your indifference
Making out like you didn't care

He never contemplated bumping in to you
How's your mother now? What you been up to?
Just to see you sets him off
A chance encounter with someone he loved so dearly

Although it left him bitter, he still fancies you
Although he's been around a bit
Since nobody does it like you do

He tells you you look fitter
Than when he saw you last
There's still something there between you
Despite the months that's passed

He never contemplated bumping in to you
How's your mother now and what you been up to?
Just to see you sets him off
A chance encounter with someone he loved so dearly

And you didn't take no cajoling
And then you were rolling around
On his living room floor

Once he'd been in your knickers
The lies and the bickers didn't matter
So much anymore

And I've often heard it being said
That you can't be friends once you've been to bed
Just to see you, sets me off
A chance encounter with someone I loved so dearly
