I had to watch them trying to get you undressed
I never knew that you’d get married

On that damp and lonely Thursday years ago
I never knew that you’d get married
Our mothers said we could be sister and brother
And I said let’s all meet up in the year 2000
Won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown
What are you doing Sunday baby
Ah Deborah do you recall?
Won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown
I never knew that you’d get married
Oh, it meant nothing to you
With wood chip on the wall
Your name is Deborah, Deborah
Do it
Be there 2 o’clock by the fountain down the road
And I said let’s all meet up in the year 2000
You can even bring your baby
Oh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh oh oh ooh ooh ooh
You didn’t notice me at all
When I came around to call

Oh we were born within one hour of each other
We’d get married, and never split up

Would you like to come and meet me maybe?
You didn’t notice me at all
We were friends, that was as far as it went
I would be living down here on my own
And Martyn said that you were the best
On that damp and lonely Thursday years ago
Your house was very small

With woodchip on the wall
Would you like to come and meet me maybe?
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
I would be living down here on my own
You can even bring your baby
Be there 2 o’clock by the fountain down the road
Oh Deborah, do you recall?

Deborah do you recall?
Oh what are you doing Sunday baby
When I came around to call
You were the first girl at school to get breasts
Oh, your house was very small
I used to walk you home sometimes but it meant
I would be living down here on my own
Oh yeah

‘Cause you were so popular
With wood chip on the wall
And they said that when we grew up

And I said let’s all meet up in the year 2000
Be there 2 o’clock by the fountain down the road
It never suited ya
You didn’t notice me at all
Oh the boys all loved you, but I was a mess
On that damp and lonely Thursday years ago
When I came around to call
Won’t it be strange when we’re all fully grown
Oh yeah
Oh, we never did it, although I often thought of it

Your house was very small
