Just One Of Those Things
Fygi Laura Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It was just one of those things
Just one of those crazy flings
One of those bells that now and then rings
Just one of those things

It was just one of those nights
Just one of those fabulous flights
A trip to the moon on gossamer wings
Just one of those things

If we'd thought a bit, of the end of it
When we started painting the town
We'd have been aware that our love affair
Was too hot, not to cool down

So goodbye, dear, and Amen
Here's hoping we meet now and then




It was great fun
But it was just one of those things
