Guess Who I Saw Today

(album: For Always - 1975)

You're so late getting home from the office
Did you miss your train?
Were you caught in the rain?
No, don't bother to explain
Can I fix you a quick martini?
As a matter of fact
I will have one with you
For to tell you the truth
I've had quite a day too

Guess who I saw today, my dear
I went in town to shop around
For something new
And thought I'd stop and have a bite
When I was through

I looked around for someplace near
And it occurred to me
Where I had parked the car
There is a most attractive French cafe
And bar
It really wasn't very far

The waiter showed me to a dark
Secluded corner
And when my eyes became accustomed
To the gloom
I saw two people at the bar
Who were so much in love
That even I could spot it clear
Across the room

Guess who I saw today, my dear
I've never been so shocked before
I headed blindly for the door
They didn't see me passing through
Guess who I saw today?
I saw you!...
