A week went by, and then another And not a word from you I remember when a day would be unusual I saw the spring become the summer As the spring is wont to do And I began to find the boredom almost beautiful Oh, I must admit I welcomed it ♪ As a month unfolded into a few I thought of you now and then I glimpsed you once but you were gone again When the autumn turned to winter As autumn ought to do I thought Oh! What if the sun never shone And then you sprang to mind unbidden When it didn't It might have been the music from next door
Reminded me I should have missed you more A song I've heard a hundred times before ♪ A year went by, and yet another And not a word from you I remember when a day would be unusual But I bumped into your brother In the supermarket queue And he wondered if the feeling wasn't mutual Then, from in the wings, a neighbour sings It might have been the music from next door Reminded me I should have missed you more A song I've heard a hundred times before
