It was my own lovely lady And she said, "Oh, it's you" Then we laughed for a moment And I said, "I never knew"
Escape (The Piรฑa Colada Song) by Rupert Holmes
This whole song is very interesting to me. This couple falls out of love and both have the same idea to pursue a new love through a fucking ad on the morning paper. And when they meet and realize it was their loved one all along, all she says is "oh, it's you." Like she knew there would be no else there for her. And they're both getting to meet each other again for the first time and figure out what the other likes and they're surprised by lots of things they didn't know about their loved one. Just. I'm surprised by how much story this fun little song has packed into such simple lyrics.
