Yes, I know I'm late gettin' home tonight

Can supper wait, I quess I lost my appetite

Yeah you can fix me a drink, oh anything's okay

Oh, by the way I met a friend of yours today

I was workin' on the other side of town

And comin' home I thought I'd stop and have a round

And in this bar I heard someone speak your name

And that's how I met a friend of yours today

I listened for awhile and I could tell

That that stranger there he knew you much to well

And I introduced myself and you should have seen his face

Oh what a shame I met a friend of yours today

Please don't cry woman 'cause it's much too late for tears

Yeah, I'm sorry too 'cause it hurts after all these years

And ain't it sad a love like ours should end this way

And all because I met a friend of yours today
