Just Like That

ABBA · Other Songs - ABBA

Until that day

My life had been a river

Following a safe

Pre-destinated course

Suddenly detouring

So unexpectedly

With uncompromising force

My strongholds broke down all too easily

I remember well how it did embarrass me

I hung on to his every smile

Marvelled at his style



[Chorus]

Just like that

He walked into my house as smug as a cat

He was handsome and smart

Walked away with my heart



Just like that

He found a temporary home in my flat

Telling innocent lies

Throwing dust in my eyes

But I lead him on

Knowing that some day soon he'd be gone



Just like that

As though he'd only stopped a while for a chat

But my secrets he learned

Leaving no stone unturned



And once again

The river's flowing slowly

Following it's safe and uneventful course

Now that tears have dried

It's become a pleasant break

I recall without remorse

But now and then I wonder where he is

And I will admit he had something that I miss

I guess he was a rolling stone

The only one I've known



[Chorus] x 2



Just like that
