One, two
One, two, three, four

I thought I saw you in a car
I thought I saw you on a morning train
Saw you walkin' in a bar
I thought I saw you in a car

I thought I saw you in a magazine
I thought I saw you in a movie screen
I made a wish upon a star

I thought I saw you a traffic cop
I thought I saw you at a bus stop
I see you everywhere you are
I thought I saw you in a car

I thought I saw you in a country club
I thought I saw you you were cleaning up
I thought I saw you and your eyes were shut
I thought I saw you in a car
I thought I saw you on a fine-trimmed lawn
It seemed like everybody else was gone
You were dancin' in the dark
I thought I saw you in a car

I thought I saw you on a side road
I saw you broken down, you know
Never tore me right apart
I thought I saw you in a car

I thought I saw you on a morning train
You know it nearly drove me insane
I think you've taken it too far
I thought I saw you in a car

I thought I saw you in a car
I thought I saw you in a car
I thought I saw you in a car
I thought I saw you in a car
