You Introduced Us Two

Verse 1

Shaun was a client, then he asked me out

Never said a word about who was still around

A couple dinners, then I stayed the night

Woke to an open door and quite a sight

Black-and-white beauty hanging in the hall

Blue eyes that could stop you through a photograph

I said, "Who's that?" He said, "My ex, Fran"

Funny what gets left out by a man

Verse 2

Something wasn't adding up, I let him go

Then your name kept putting on a little show

Friend request one, then two, then three

Gone before I clicked—girl, you checking on me?

So I wrote, "Was there something you wanted to say?"

And a whole different story came walking my way

Three years together, and I never knew

He called you his ex while he was still with you

Pre-Chorus

Three hours talking, comparing the lines

Somewhere in the middle, we forgot to mind

Who he was choosing, what he might do

I was getting much more interested in you

Chorus

Thanks for the introduction

What a beautiful production

You thought you were the leading man

Turns out the story's me and Fran

You were a date, she's a lifetime friend

Best thing you did was how it ends

Of all the things you put us through

My favorite thing about you

Is you introduced us two

Verse 3

Saw a plant show coming up online

Your little "interested" sitting next to mine

Said, "Want to go?" Pulled up outside

Off to Hershey on a countryside drive

Rolling hills and houses passing by

Conversation easy as that open sky

Plants, then shopping, laughing all the way

Who knew a best friend started out that way?

Chorus

Thanks for the introduction

What a beautiful production

You thought you were the leading man

Turns out the story's me and Fran

You were a date, she's a lifetime friend

Best thing you did was how it ends

Of all the things you put us through

My favorite thing about you

Is you introduced us two

Bridge — softer

I saw a pretty picture in a frame

Had no idea I'd learn to love that name

Now you're the one I call to tell things to

That woman in the hallway—who knew?

Final Chorus — bigger, joyful

Thanks for the introduction

We made our own connection

You thought you were the leading man

We've barely mentioned you since then

Joined at the hip, with more plants than plans

Look what we found when we compared our hands

Fran, if that whole mess led me to you

There's one thing I can thank him for

And honey, nothing more

Outro — spoken, laughing

"Three friend requests, Fran?"

"I was trying to be discreet."
