I bet you'd never guess who I saw tonight Guess you didn't see me in those low dim lights I knew who she was By the ring still on her hand Sure looked like you still wanted to be her man So I guess that means that things are better Must not be so bad at home I thought it looked like you were leavin' But it don't And I heard you tell her you still love her So it doesn't matter what you say I saw it all From a table away I thought she was pretty She's nothing like the things you said The woman you described Couldn't even turn your head The two of you look lost inside a world all your own Like you couldn't wait to get her alone So I guess that means that things are better Must not be so bad at home I thought it looked like you were leavin' But it don't And I heard you tell her you still love her So it doesn't matter what you say I saw it all From a table away And I heard you tell her you still love her So it doesn't matter what you say I saw it all From a table away Yes you're gonna stay A table away
