I’m looking over a picture of my hometown lover
“I’m going west to make a name”
That’s what I told him long ago
And though he waited
When I returned the spark had faded
I got him in to see my show
That was the best that I could do

But it don’t seem right
No, it don’t seem right
Even as I’m lying here tonight
I love everything about you
I don’t need to know your name
Hardly recognize your face
Seems I’ve seen it every place
'Cause you all look just the same

Well I see you’ve changed your hairstyle
Yes it’s looking hip and new
Last time ‘round your robbed my blind
Ripped my clothes off, I don’t mind
Tell me, is it really you?

Though we pretended
We knew our sad charade had ended
Nothing more was left to say
Nothing less than love would do
I’m going under
And as I sink I kinda wonder
Was I wrong to lead him on
And was I right to let him go?

‘Cause it don’t seem right
No, it don’t seem right
Even as I’m holding you so tight

We could go out to a movie
But I’m wasted from my show
Gee, you’re nice to have around
You’re the next best thing I’ve found to the home I used to know

You know, it all looks so familiar
Rolling down Park Avenue
Need some change to pay the driver
Honey, get me out a fiver
Tell me, is it really you?
Tell me, is it really you?
