So This is Romance

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I got a note from my cousin the other day He said his lady had gone on a holiday He thought she'd be back in a week or so But that was more than two months ago [Refrain] So this is romance So this is romance [Verse 2] They'd been together devoted through thick and thin He really thought she would love no-one else but him But now he doesn't think she's being fair To be having so much fun with him not there [Refrain] So this is romance So this is romance [Verse 3] In her last letter she was water-skiing And she has learnt to drive a car A gigolo bearing the name Romero Takes up her evenings in a cocktail bar [Refrain] So this is romance You don't stand a chance [piano solo] [Bridge] He felt mistreated but what could he say This was her idea of a holiday [Verse 4] So he decided he'd go out and bring her home 'Till he found out she'd got married the week before Sorry I had no time to let you know But can I pour you a drink before you go [Refrain] So this is romance So this is romance (goodbye goodbye)
