I Met a Friend of Yours Today

Yes, I know I'm late, gettin' home tonight
Can supper wait, I guess I lost my appetite
Yeah, you fix me a drink, and anything's okay
Oh, by the way I met a friend of yours today

And I was workin' on the other side of town
And comin' home, I thought I'd stop and have the 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
At that stranger there, he knew you much too well
And I introduced myself, and then 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 an' 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
