Strangest Romance

It was the strangest romance
We met at a dance in july
He came with somebody else
So did i

It was the strangest romance
He came to the dance to forget
Someone he loved
But he couldn't forget

He told me the story
Of how they had departed
And i understood very well

My heart was aching
For him it was breaking
For i had the very same story to tell

It was the strangest romance
Heaven was watching above
For when the dance ended
We were in love
