We were friends when we left our home streets
When we first set off down that track
So we started sitting in the front seats
But finished spending time in the back
We had decided to go on a road trip
From John O’Groats to Lands End
We had never intended a courtship
We thought we were just good friends
We’d been neighbours since we children
You were the girl next door
I don’t remember a time when
We’ve never been friends for sure
But somehow spending this time together
Just talking the day away
Well I could do this forever
I’m glad you feel the same way
I think by the time the trip ends
Our families will get the shock of their life
We started this trip as just friends
And came back as husband and wife!
