Then I Met You

(album: Right On - 1970)

My life was getting used to
A dull daily routine
I was getting so fed up
I just wanted to scream
Up at six to work by nine
Home again by dinnertime
Watch TV til half past ten
Sleep and wake, and start again

Then, then I met you
And the pattern of my life was changed
My hum-drum world was re-arranged
Then, then I met you
You've made everyday a holiday
If it's not, it feels that way
Since I fell in love with you

I used to spend my weekends home
Wondering what to do
Sometimes I'd pick up the phone
And call a friend or two
And they'd say, "let's go somewhere"
I'd take the curlers from my hair
And go bowling with the girls
Then come home to my lonely world

Then, then I met you
And the pattern of my life was changed
My hum-drum world was re-arranged
Then, then I met you
You've made everyday a holiday
If it's not, it feels that way
Since I fell in love with you

I get silly when I pinch myself
I thought no one can see
But the last time I was loved like this
I woke up from a dream

Then, then I met you
And the pattern of my life was changed
My hum drum world was re-arranged
Then, then I met you
Now I'm having fun just like a child
In a playground, running wild
When, when I met you
You showed me life's happy side
Gave me love I've been denied
