A song about a meeting, a date, a night and a twist. Unrequited love.

Lyrics

"Love will ruin a good thing."

I took a chance when I saw you standing in the corner
I wasn't sure of your style
I thought I'd try my best line
To see if I could make you smile

We talked a while and then you asked me for my number
I felt my face blush with pride
You touched my hand
And that was when I realised

Chorus:
That love will always ruin a good thing
Maybe lead to broken hearts
Love will always ruin a good thing
Before it starts

You called me up and we went out to the movie theatre
We talked a while and drank some beers
That's when you told me
You felt like you known me for years

After some time we decided to try somewhere different
I suggested my place
You touched my hand
And I saw it in the look on your face

Chorus:
That love was going to ruin a good thing
Maybe lead to broken hearts
Love will always ruin a good thing
Before it starts

(Short instrumental bridge)

You woke up early and I told you I could make you breakfast
You said that you had to go
You put your clothes on
And made your way towards the front door

I tried to kiss you but you turned to look over your shoulder
There wasn't any use to pretend
I took your hand and I touched the ring upon your finger
(break)
I knew I'd never see you again

Yeh 'cus love has gone and ruined a good thing
Almost lead to broken hearts
Love will always ruin a good thing
Before it starts
