What if you took the long way down
To your favorite cafe on the east side of town?
And you got stuck at the light
So you turn down a side street
But you couldn't drive down?
'cause it's a Saturday swap meet
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la oo
So you get out of your car
And you walk through the crowd
You bargain for a teapot in the shape of an owl
So you walk and you walk?
and you walk to the coffee shop
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la oo
You feel lonely and shy
But you take the empty seat next to the cute guy
What if he smiled when you asked for the time?
Your pen wouldn't write,?
so he said, Take mine
When your coffee got cold,?
he bought you another
You didn't know it yet,?
but you were mean for each other
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la
Oo la la, oo la la, oo la la, la la oo
What if you talked 'til it was time to go?
He said, See you around
And you said, Who knows?
But you knew in your heart
That you'd see him again
After walking down a side?
street coming from a new direction
