I Thought It Was You (1991)
I called your name out loud to a stranger yesterday
When she turned around I said I'm sorry and just walked away
From a distance she had that look and for a second or two

I thought it was you it took a moment to catch my breath
Tried to brace myself still don't have a clue
How to leave your memory behind after all this time
I hear there's one special love in each life
Well, I must look like a fool I thought it was you

I still drive by your house taking trips down memory lane

We had our future worked out at least we did on that old porch swing
Today in my rearview mirror I saw an old Malibu

I thought it was you it took a moment to catch my breath
Tried to brace myself still don't have a clue
How to leave your memory behind after all this time
I hear there's one special love in each life
Well, I must look like a fool I thought it was you
Am I really a fool? I thought it was you
I thought it was you
Why couldn't it be you?
