I Saw You

I saw you at the Chinese place your chopsticks in your hand
Your golden hair newly-coiffed, my, you were looking grand
You were talking to your new friend, oh, hell, what’s-his-face?
The smile you were giving him is one I knew when it was still
our place

I saw you at the gym working out side by side
and I saw you in his car as he was giving you a ride
I saw you two heading home for grilled cheese and wine
another time and another place came briefly to my mind

I saw you on the mountain, Big Red at your feet
You were showing him to his swimming pool, how very sweet.
I saw your pretty pictures as they flew by me in space
The only thing I never saw was me there at your place.
