DID WE MEET SOMEWHERE BEFORE
By Paul McCartney
From the film "Rock'n'Roll Highschool" 1979
 
 
DID WE MEET SOMEWHERE BEFORE
FAR BEHIND THAT HALF CLOSED DOOR?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE SMALL THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US?
 
HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
HAPPENING OVER AND OVER.
WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT WHAT IT'S ABOUT?
 
DID YOU ALWAYS LOOK LIKE THIS,
AT THE UNSPECTED KISS?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US?
 
HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
HAPPENING OVER AND OVER.
WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT WHAT IT'S ABOUT?
 
DID WE TAKE A LONG TIME THEN?
WILL WE TAKE AS LONG AGAIN?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING (ow!) TO BOTH OF US?
IT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US.
 
HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
HAPPENING OVER AND OVER.
WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT (ever find out) WHAT IT'S ABOUT? (what it's about)
 
DID WE MEET SOMEWHERE BEFORE
FAR BEHIND THAT HALF CLOSED DOOR?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US?
IT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US.
 
OOH, OOH.
 
HAPPENING TIME AND TIME AGAIN,
HAPPENING OVER AND OVER.
WILL THE KING'S HORSES AND ALL THE KING'S MEN
EVER FIND OUT (ever find out) WHAT IT'S ABOUT? (what it's about)
 
DID YOU ALWAYS LOOK LIKE THIS,
AT THE UNSPECTED KISS?
OR IS THIS JUST ONE MORE THING THAT'S HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US?
HAPPENING TO BOTH OF US.

WE'VE GOT A CHANCE AND WE'LL TAKE IT;
WE MAY WIN OR WE MAY LOSE;
WE MAY EVEN HAVE TO CUT AND RUN FOR IT.
WELL, IT WON'T BE THE FIRST TIME I'VE RUN
AND IT WON'T BE THE FIRST TIME I'VE BEEN CAUGHT.
IT'S THE GAME THAT MATTERS.
 
BROTHER, I AM PROUD TO KNOW YOU.
THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST MOMENTS I HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED.
I THINK I'LL SENSE A SITUATION WHEN WE ALL ESTEEMED IT
AN HONOUR TO BREATHE THE RATHER INFERIOR ATMOSPHERE
OF THIS STATION HERE ALONG WITH OUR LITTLE FRIEND.
 
I GUESS WE SHOULD ALL GO HOME AND TREASURE THE MEMORY OF HIS FACE
AS THE WHITEST THING IN OUR MUSEUM OF RECOLLECTION.
AND, PERHAPS, THIS GOOD WOMAN WILL ALSO GO HOME
AND WATCH THE FACE OF OUR LITTLE BROTHER HERE.
 
I'M INSPIRED WITH A NEW FAITH IN MANKIND.
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, I WISH TO PRESENT TO YOU
A SURE ENOUGH SAINT WHO ONLY WANTS A HALO TO BE TRANSFIXED.
