I saw a man today
Who said he'd talked to you
Not so long ago
I think a month or two
As my mind raced back in time
I prayed, "Oh, Lord
Don't let it show"
He thinks I forgot you
Fifteen years ago
Fifteen years ago
And I still feel the same
Why did he
Have to mention your name?
I'm as broken up inside
As if it's been
A week or so
Takes a mighty strong love
To keep a man thinking of a girl
He hasn't seen
Since fifteen years ago
I've got a lovely wife
Who thinks the world of me
Promised her my love
Through all eternity
I've tried hard to make her happy
And so far
She doesn't know
I can't shake this thing
Of fifteen years ago
Fifteen years ago
And I still feel the same
Why did he
Have to mention your name?
I'm as broken up inside
As if it's been a week or so
Takes a mighty long time
To get a real love off your mind
I know
I've tried
Since fifteen years ago
