She drove up to the restaurant
|
where they used to dine
|
and sitting at the table
|
was someone new this time
|
she walked up right beside him
|
her face did not turn red
|
she looked at him so calmly
|
and this is what she said
|
|
“As good as I was to you
|
is this the thanks I get?
|
Are all the years we shared
|
so easy to forget?
|
Does this mean that you won?
|
Are you finally having fun?
|
Is she your dream come true?
|
Oh she sure looks good
|
but she won’t ever be
|
as good as I was to you”
|
|
The room got awfully quiet
|
And everybody stared
|
Finally the waiter said
|
“Should I bring another chair?”
|
She said “No I was just leaving”
|
but as she walked out the door
|
she said “Honey you can have him
|
I don’t want him anymore
|
|
“As good as I was to you
|
is this the thanks I get?
|
Are all the years we shared
|
So easy to forget?
|
Is this the way it’s done?
|
Looking out for number one?
|
Did you think it through?
|
Oh she sure looks good
|
but she won’t ever be
|
As good as I was to you
|
|
“Does this mean that you won?
|
Are you finally having fun?
|
Is she your dream come true?
|
Oh she sure looks good
|
but she won’t ever be
|
as good as I was to you
|
|
“As good as I was to you.”
