Colin Blunstone

It was the shortest love affair that existed
I wouldnt have botthered if she hadnt insisted
But saying nos never been a strong line of mine
Be it to a lady or a bottle of wine
So we danced for an hour
And we drank for another
Then she introduced me to her younger brother
And I looked on him as a brother of mine
But I wasnt quite sure how he looked on her
I wish Id gone straight home to bed
Id be watching the late film instead
Of laughing and lying and dying here
And fearing that something be said
Oh open the floor
I just cant take any more
She told me he was her brother
Now I find out that hes her lover
The light in his eyes that Id noticed before
When I looked in the mirror on my bedroom door
It wasnt the way that you looked at your sister
Just then I noticed hed started to kiss her
Well I may have been slow to accept all he said
Soon felt myself turn from milk white to red
And Id have done something but this you must see
Any way I looked at him he looked six foot three
I wish Id gone home to bed
Id be watching the late film instead
Of laughing and lying and dying here
And fearing that something be said
Oh open the floor
I just cant take any more
She told me he was her brother
Now I find out that hes her lover
It was the shortest love affair that existed
I wouldnt have bothered if she hadnt insisted
But saying nos never been a strong line of mine
Be it to a lady or a bottle of wine
Be it to a lady or a bottle of wine
Be it to a lady or a bottle of wine
