Intro
Well we were bo rn within an hour of each other
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother
Your name is deb orah. Deborah, it never suited you
And they s aid that when we grew up
We'd get married and never split up
We never di d, although i often thought of it
Oh deborah, do you re call?
Your house was very small
With woodchips on the wall
And when i came round to c all
You didnt notice me at all . . . .
And i said, le ts all meet up in the year 2000
won't it be strange when we're all fully g rown
Be there 2 o'clock by the fountain down the r oad
I never knew that you'd get married
I would be living down here on my o wn
On that damp and lonely thursday years a go
(chords as verse1)
you were the first girl in school to get breasts
Martin said that you were the best
the boys all loved you, but i was a mess
i had to watch them try to get you undressed
We were freinds that was as far as it went
I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
Oh it meant nothing to you
cos you were, oh so popular
