Over deze songtekst:
Geschreven door Graham Gouldman die ook hits zou maken als For your love (Yardbirds), I'm not in love (10CC) en No milk today (Herman's Hermits). Gouldman kreeg het idee (uiteraard) op een bus als hij van het werk kwam. De openingszinnen komen van zijn vader die ook wel wat kon schrijven en hem af en toe ideeën gaf. Graham Gouldman maakte daarop zelf de song verder af. Gouldman had op dat moment nog een gewone job overdag in een winkel en speelde 's avonds muziek.
Refrein: Bus stop, wet day, she's there, I say Please share my umbrella Bus stop, bus goes, she stays, love grows Under my umbrella Refrein 2: All that summer we enjoyed it Wind and rain and shine That umbrella, we employed it By August, she was mine Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought Other people stared as if we were both quite insane Someday my name and hers are going to be the same That's the way the whole thing started Silly but it's true Thinking of a sweet romance Beginning in a queue Came the sun, the ice was melting No more sheltering now Nice to think that that umbrella Led me to a vow Every morning I would see her waiting at the stop Sometimes she'd shopped and she would show me what she bought Other people stared as if we were both quite insane Someday my name and hers are going to be the same Refrein Refrein 2
