  • Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    I'm never gonna see you again
    And you'll never meet my new friends

    Maureen, I miss you
    I just can't explain
    I'm never gonna see you again
    I wish you could meet my new friends

    Walking along the subway listening to
    Loving you is easy acapella
    You were a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-cart town
    And I miss you Maureen

    We're as thick as thieves

    Maureen, Maureen
    Remember when my mother said to me
    "Sade, don't you come home too late
    'Til you're back, I stay awake"

    And Maureen
    With the boys you could tell at a glance
    You'd say, "he looks good
    Let's hope he can dance"
    Wicky-wacky party to the

    Where are we going tonight
    And what will you be wearing?
    Shone like a souped-up car in that rent-a-go-cart town
    And I miss you Maureen, I miss you girl

    You were my best friend
    Never gonna see you again, Maureen
    And you'll never meet my new friends
    You really were a pearl in my world, Maureen

    Maureen
    It's hard to explain
    You'll never call 'round to see me again
    You'll never meet my new friends

    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends
    Never meet my new friends Writer/s: Andrew Hale, Helen Adu, Paul Denman
