Until that day
My life had been a river
Following the same, pre-destinated course,

Suddenly detouring so unexpectedly
With uncompromising force.
My strongholds broke down all too easily;

I remember well,
How it did embarrass me;
I hung on to his every smile

Marveled at his style

Just like that...

He walked into my house
As smug as a cat
He was handsome and smart

Walked away with my heart
Just like that...
He found a temporary home in my flat

Telling innocent lies
Throwing dust in my eyes
But I led him on,

Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Just like that...
As though he only stopped awhile for a chat;

But my secrets he learned
Leaving no stone unturned


And once again, the river's flowing slowly,
Following the same and uneventful course.
Now the tears have dried,

it's become a pleasant break,
I recall without remorse.
But now and then

I wonder where he is
And I will admit,
he had something that I miss.

I guess he was a rolling stone;
The only one I've known.


Just like that...
He walked into my house
As smug as a cat

He was handsome and smart
Walked away with my heart
Just like that...

He found a temporary home in my flat
Telling innocent lies
Throwing dust in my eyes

But I led him on,
Knowing that someday soon he'd be gone
Just like that...

As though he only stopped awhile for a chat;
But my secrets he learned
Leaving no stone unturned
