I thought I saw you walk into the store
From the rain, you came soaking wet.
It was seventeen minutes to four,
And you hadn't spoken yet.
That's because, because I wasn't thinking:
It wasn't you and I was sinking,
'Cause now you all look the same.
Then I saw you sitting on the bus,
Looking out into the night.
I sat and told you about us,
But you said that I wasn't right.
That's because, because I just didn't understand,
That wasn't you holding my hand.
And I said "shit, you all look the same."
And there was no use in keeping up,
You just weren't having it.
No, there was nothing I could do.
But every woman I saw was you.
I thought I saw you sitting at the bar
Flirting with the other men.
Compared to me, they had all gone far,
Don't know what I was thinking then.
That's because, I almost came to my senses,
But I found that thought offensive:
There was no way you all looked the same.
Tell me what are you up to?
There just isn't that much to do.
And I've asked everyone,
I'm beginning to think you were never really there.
And there was no use in keeping up,
You just weren't having it.
No, there was nothing I could do.
But every woman I saw was you.
But now I've seen you for real this time,
You had a frown across your face.
Could've sworn that I'd crossed the line;
That I brought you some disgrace.
That's because, because "I was chasing tail,
Living in a fairytale.
What do you mean, that we all look the same?"
