  • The way that you looked at him
    And then you looked at me
    You must think that I'm proper blind
    Proper blind not to see
    That I was just a stop gap
    Sitting somewhere in-between his hand and his lap
    Let me tell you that I wasn't born yesterday, my dear

    That kiss it lasted too long
    And we probably shouldn't have danced to that song
    It was nothing
    It was everything
    It's really such a shame
    It's so hard to explain to you

    He's back in town tonight
    He's expecting you round a quarter to nine
    But you won't be there
    'Cause he bores the proverbials off you
    If he only knew what you thought
    The lust, the lack of trust, the temptation you fought
    He's worthless, the maxims he flouts
    And he's just a passing fashion and he's on his way out

    That kiss it lasted too long
    And we probably shouldn't have danced to that song
    It meant nothing
    It meant everything
    It's really such a shame
    It's so hard to explain to you

    I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it
    I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it
    I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it
    I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it
    I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it
    I know that I shouldn't but I enjoyed it

    That kiss it lasted too long
    And we probably shouldn't have danced to that song
    It was nothing
    It was absolutely everything
    It's really such a shame
    It's so hard to explain to you

    That kiss, that girl, that place that you go
    Where is she now?
