lyrics

OH WOW, IT’S YOU AGAIN

When I'm sure you're gone at last
I make believe that I have no past
I make a cheer and wipe away all the tears
Take another room - Find another friend
And when I feel that you're not real
I stop and then

Oh wow, it's you again
How odd I should meet you here
Oh wow, it's you again
You haunt me - You taunt me
Why don't you disappear?

This hotel had a view
One brick wall and shades of blue
I paid my bill and started over again
I flipped another penny - counted up to ten
I let her rip just like a gypsy dog and then

( chorus )

In this warm foreign place
There's not one familiar face
It seems this time I left myself far behind
I write another letter I know I'll never send
I lock the door and walk out for some air
and then...

Oh wow, it's you again
How odd I should meet you here
Oh wow, it's you again
You haunt me - You taunt me
Why don't you disappear?

*In my head it seems so easy
to work the pieces in
We had much in common you and I
But the picture becomes ugly
As the truth solidifies
And just when I should realize
That it's me I've got to find...

Oh wow, it's you again
How odd I should meet you here
Oh wow, it's you again
You haunt me - You taunt me
Why don't you disappear?
