This happened once before
When I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn't you
But I saw you peep through your window

I saw the lie
I know that you saw me
As I looked up to see your face

I tried to telephone
They said you were not home
That's a lie (You dirty liar!)
'Cause I know where you've been
I saw you walk in your place/door (Ha ha ha ha ha!)

I nearly died
'Cause you walked hand in hand
With another man in your place

If I were you, I'd realise that I
Love you more than any other guy
And I'll forgive the lies that I
Heard before when you gave me no reply

This happened once before, oh yeah
When I came to your door
No reply
They said it wasn't you
But I saw you peep through your ways (Ha ha ha ha!)
