WHEN HE SAW HER
GETTIN' OFF THE BUS
IT SEEMED TO
WIPE AWAY THE YEARS
HER FACE WAS OLDER
JUST A LITTLE ROUGH
BUT HER EYES
WERE STILL SO CLEAR
HE DRANK HIS COFFEE
AND HE HURRIED OUT
ACROSS BEFORE
SHE WALKED AWAY
THEN HE APPROACHED HER
LIKE A LITTLE CHILD
TOO SCARED
FOR WHAT HE HAD TO SAY
HELLO, LOUISE
REMEMBER ME
NOW SHOULD WE PART
OR STAY A WHILE
AS IF WE WERE STILL LOVERS
SHE TOOK A MOMENT
JUST TO RECOGNISE
THE MAN SHE'D KNOWN
SO WELL BEFORE
AND AS HE STARTED
TO APOLOGISE
LOSE ANY BITTERNESS SHE BORE
SHE GENTLY PUT
HER FINGER ON HIS LIPS
TO LET HIM KNOW
SHE UNDERSTOOD
AND WITH HER SUITCASE
STANDIN' ON THE FLOOR
EMBRACED HIM LIKE
A LOVER WOULD
HE TOLD LOUISE
YOU LOOK SO GOOD
IT'S JUST, YOU SEE
YOU MAKE ME FEEL
AS IF WE WERE STILL LOVERS
Spoken...
IT'S NOT ALWAYS TRUE
THAT TIME HEALS ALL WOUNDS
THERE ARE WOUNDS THAT
YOU DON'T WANNA HEAL
THE MEMORIES
OF SOMETHIN' REALLY GOOD
SOMETHIN' TRULY REAL
THAT YOU NEVER FOUND AGAIN
Resume Singing...
AND THOUGH THEY TALKED
FOR JUST A LITTLE TIME
BEFORE SHE SAID SHE HAD TO GO
HE SAW THE MEETIN'
AS A TINY SIGN
THAT TOLD HIM
ALL HE HAD TO KNOW
AND SO, LOUISE
WAVED FROM THE BUS
AND AS SHE LEFT
SHE GAVE THAT SMILE
AS IF THEY WERE STILL LOVERS
AH... AH-AH, AH-AH
AH... AH-AH, AH-AH
