i saw a man today who said he’d 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 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 thinking of a girl
he hasn’t seen since fifteen years ago
i’ve got a lovely wife who thinks the world of me
promised her my love through all eternity
i’ve tried hard to make her happy
and so far she doesn’t know
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 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 your mind
i know i’ve tried since fifteen years ago
