Lyrics
This is what several people think MIGHT be the lyrics - there are still a few parts missing: I reached the rendezvous at eight relieved to find I wasn't late I saw you standing in the shadows It's hard to tell what happened then I took you in my arms again I realized I'd kissed a stranger Don't you believe me, baby All that I've said to you is true Don't you believe me, baby It's just that she looked the same as you Still I mistook her for a friend She must have thought me 'round the bend I was covered in embarrassment I made her see I was no punk No rapist, druggie full of junk and I was sorry for her harassment Don't you believe me, baby All that I've said to you is true Don't you believe me, baby It's just that she looked the same as you A hopeful hour smoking some Respective partners had not come Such disappointment people taste it Nine o'clock had brought the rain She walked away to catch her train I said "Why should this night be wasted?" Don't you believe me, baby All that I've said to you is true Don't you believe me, baby It's just that she looked the same as you Don't you believe me, baby All that I've said to you is true Don't you believe me, baby It's just that she looked the same as you Looked the same as you Looked the same as youuuuuuu (The same as you) It has sunk in that someone ?????????? Everything was going fine Til you came in and threw the soup at me I didn't mind the broken arm The blow has done no lasting harm I need you here, won't you come back to me Don't you believe me, baby All that I've said to you is true Don't you believe me, baby It's just that she looked the same as you
