So This is Romance

[Verse 1]
I got a note from my cousin the other day
He said his lady had gone on a holiday
He thought she'd be back in a week or so
But that was more than two months ago
[Refrain]
So this is romance
So this is romance

[Verse 2]
They'd been together devoted through thick and thin
He really thought she would love no-one else but him
But now he doesn't think she's being fair
To be having so much fun with him not there
[Refrain]
So this is romance
So this is romance

[Verse 3]
In her last letter she was water-skiing
And she has learnt to drive a car
A gigolo bearing the name Romero
Takes up her evenings in a cocktail bar
[Refrain]
So this is romance
You don't stand a chance

[piano solo]

[Bridge]
He felt mistreated but what could he say
This was her idea of a holiday

[Verse 4]
So he decided he‘d go out and bring her home
'Till he found out she'd got married the week before
Sorry I had no time to let you know
But can I pour you a drink before you go
[Refrain]
So this is romance
So this is romance
(goodbye goodbye)
