It was the strangest romance
We met at a dance in July
He came with somebody else
So did I
It was the strangest romance
He came to the dance to forget
Someone he loved
But he couldn't forget
[VERSE 3]
He told me the story
Of how they had departed
And I understood very well
[VERSE 4]
My heart was aching
For him it was breaking
For I had the very same story to tell
[VERSE 5]
It was the strangest romance
Heaven was watching above
For when the dance ended
We were in love
