Romance

Girls you read in your magazines Your True Confessions Woman and Nineteen It's an age old joke A stroke of circumstance That's what you've come To know and love as Romance Too much drink is Romance One slow dance is (Ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro) Romance If he happens to catch your eye Or brushed your leg as he walks by Every insignificant detail Every single circumstance It's all recorded Distorted and reported as Romance Too much drink is Romance One slow dance is (Ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro) Romance Love is such a wonderful thing That sometimes when I read Those young girls magazines I could scream If she's at a party And she's feeling so alone It's a sad excuse A bad excuse to forget About the last bus home it's Romance Too much drink is Romance One slow dance is (Ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro) Romance I've even read it in the front page news You know the kind of stories They assure you are true About those two sordid people Their sad sex life Your film star husbands Other people's wives it's Romance Too much drink is Romance One slow dance is (Ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro, ro) Romance Repeat last verse to fade.
