I saw a man today who said he talked to you
|
Not so long ago I think a month or two
|
As my mind raced back in time I prayed oh Lord don't let it show
|
He thinks I forgot you fifteen years ago
|
Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
|
Why did he have to mention your sweet name
|
I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
|
Takes a mighty strong love to keep a man thinkin' of
|
A girl he hasn't seen since fifteen years ago
|
[ steel ]
|
I've got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
|
Promised her my love through our eternity
|
I've tried hard to make her happy and so far she doesn't know
|
That I can't shake this thing of fifteen years ago
|
Fifteen years ago and I still feel the same
|
Why did he have to mention your good name
|
I'm as broken up inside as if it's been a week or so
|
Takes a mighty long time to get a real love off of your mind
|
I know I've tried since fifteen years ago
|
I know I've tried since fifteen years ago
|
