Bombay Love Song

If it was anyone but you
I remember thinkin’ on a sad and lonely day
Yeah I was thinkin’ if you could not love me
I would sail off to Bombay

It was ‘cause anyone but you
Well I knew no one else could steal my heart away
And then I thought if you didn’t love me I would hurt too much to stay

Yeah ‘cause no one in my life
Has ever got to me like you
And yes you always know what I was thinkin’
Know my every mood

And it’s easy now to say to me that l’d find love again
But for me love’s only you and all the rest would be pretend

So it was anyone but you
I could never stand some things you go and do
Like always being late for things and how you drive an auto too
And you always are so quick to point out faults you have with me
And I would battle back with anyone but you

Anyone – but you
Anyone in the world baby
Anyone but you
Anyone but you

And I’m so glad that you love me
And I did not sail away
I don’t like crowds and I hear that’s what it’s like in all of Bombay!
Bombay!

Yeah and I know
Bombay is now called
Mumbai
Mumbai
But hear me my dear

– Mumbai didn’t rhyme with “day” ?
