"So we meet again!" and I offer my hand 
     G               A
All dry and English slow.
         D
And you look at me, and I understand,
              G              A
Yeah, it's a look I used to know.
  D
"Three long years... and your favourite man... 
       G              A
Is that any way to say hello?",
          D      G              A             D   G   A
And you hold me... like you'll never let me go.

"Oh c'mon and have a drink with me,
     G               A
Sit down and talk a while..."
       D
"Oh I wish I could... and I will! 
           G                   A
But now I just don't have the time..."
     D
And over my shoulder as I walk away,
   G                  A            D
I see you give that look goodbye...
                            G      A
I still see that look in your eye... 


    Em                        A
So dizzy Mr. Busy - Too much rush to talk to Billy,
         Em                            A
All the silly frilly things have to first get done.
      Em                             A
In a minute - sometime soon - maybe next time - make it June,
       Em              A           D   G   A
Until later... doesn't always come.


        D    G         A           D   G   A
Until later... doesn't always come.

It's so hard to think "It ends sometime,
     G                  A
And this could be the last".
          D
I should really hear you sing again,
              G                A
And I should really watch you dance,
              D
Because it's hard to think
                  G            A
"I'll never get another chance
      D              G      A
To hold you... to hold you... " 


     Em                          A
But chilly Mr. Dilly - Too much rush to talk to Billy,
         Em                       A
All the tizzy fizzy idiot things must get done.
     Em                              A
In a second - just hang on - all in good time - won't be long,
       Em    A
Until later... 


    G                   A                   G            A
I should've stopped to think - I should've made the time.
    G                 A                  G            A
I could've had that drink - I could've talked a while.
    G                A                 G          A
I would've done it right - I would've moved us on,
       G                 A           G
But I didn't - now it's all too late,
      A                D        G   A
It's over... And you're gone...

Interlude: D  G  A

   D
I miss you, I miss you, I miss you, I miss you,
   G                     A      D   G   A
I miss you, I miss you so much...


     D                                  
But how many times can I walk away
     G        A
And wish "If only..."
 D
How many times can I talk this way
     G        A
And wish "If only..." 
 D
Keep on making the same mistake,
 G                  A
Keep on aching the same heartbreak,
       D
And I wish "If only..."
         G     A
But "If only...." 
               Em   
Is a wish too late...
