Lyrics

I saw her through the window today

I observed her from outside today

She was sittin' in the Silver Spoon cafe

She was seated in the Silver Spoon cafe

I started to keep going

I initially intended to keep walking

But something made me stop

But something compelled me to stop

She used to love me a lot

She used to have strong feelings for me


She looked lonely and I knew the cure

She appeared lonely, and I knew the solution

Old memories would win her heart for sure

Past memories would rekindle her affection

I thought I'd walk on in

I decided to enter

And I give it my best shot

And I gave it my best effort

She used to love me a lot

She used to have strong feelings for me


I sat down beside her and she smiled

I sat beside her, and she greeted me with a smile

She said where have you been it's been awhile

She inquired about my whereabouts; it's been a while

She was glad to see me

She was pleased to see me

I could almost read her thoughts

I could almost discern her thoughts

She used to love me a lot

She used to have strong feelings for me


She used to love me with a love that wouldn't die

She used to love me intensely

Looking at her now I can't believe I said good-bye

Looking at her now, I can't believe I said goodbye

It would only take a minute to turn back the clock

A moment could reverse the past

She used to love me a lot

She used to have strong feelings for me


I remember how good it was back then

I recall how wonderful it was in those days

And I said it's not to late to start again

I suggested it's not too late to begin anew

We could spend a night together

We could resume our relationship

Take up where we left off

Continue from where we left off

She used to love me a lot

She used to have strong feelings for me


But I panicked as she turned to walk away

But I became anxious as she started to leave

As she went out the door I heard her say

As she exited, I heard her express

Yes I'm in need of something

Yes, I need something

But it's something you ain't got

But it's something you lack

But I used to love you a lot

But I used to love you intensely


I thought she loved me with a love that wouldn't die

I believed she loved me with an enduring love

Looking at her now I can't believe she said good-bye

Looking at her now, I can't believe she said goodbye

She just left me standing there, I never been so shocked

She left me standing there, and I've never been so shocked

She used to love me a lot

She used to have strong feelings for me

She used to love me a lot

She used to love me a lot, she used to love me a lot, she used to love me a lot
