ABBA Just Like That

Until that day

My life had been a river following

A safe predestinated 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 onto his every smile

Marveled at his style

 

Just like that

He walked into my life

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 a while for a chat

But my secrets he learned

Leaving no stone unturned

 

And once again

The rivers flowing slowly

Following it’s safe 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’d known

 

Just like that

He walked into my life

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 a while for a chat

But my secrets he learned

Leaving no stone unturned

 

Just like that

He walked into my life

As smug as a cat

He was handsome and smart

Walked away with my heart

 

Just like that

As though he only stopped for a while for a chat

But my secrets he learned

Leaving no stone unturned

Just like that
