This afternoon I went downtown I was looking for your face Where I walked with you a thousand times before But the only trace I found Was a yesterday I lost along the way I smelled your perfume in the air And I turned but you weren't there It was just your portrait painted in my mind And pictures there of me and you Memories that like a fool I left behind Once there was a time when I was yours and you were mine And every search for you would stop at our front door You were always waiting there for me at night when I'd come home I'd see your smiling face and I'd feel great once more Like a fool I walked away And some sounds along the way It was only me just whispering your name As I walked along the street Hoping that someday we'd maybe meet again
