sung by Dudley Saunders
lyrics
Please forgive me
If I stare at you.
You remind me of someone I once knew,
Somebody who died
Long ago.
She was your age.
She'd be older now.
She'd be wearing clothes like you, I swear.
And that's just like something she would say.
Am I being obnoxious?
It's so incredible.
Let me stare at you a little more.
It's been so very long.
And not, not a day goes by
Without me stopping someone on the street
Just to tell her she looks like someone who died.
And now the world is luckier by two,
Because two people look like you.
It's been so very long.
And not, not a day goes by
Without me stopping someone on the street
Just to tell her she looks like someone who died.
And now the world is luckier by two,
Because two people look like you.
The world is luckier by two,
Because two people look like you.
If I stare at you.
You remind me of someone I once knew,
Somebody who died
Long ago.
She was your age.
She'd be older now.
She'd be wearing clothes like you, I swear.
And that's just like something she would say.
Am I being obnoxious?
It's so incredible.
Let me stare at you a little more.
It's been so very long.
And not, not a day goes by
Without me stopping someone on the street
Just to tell her she looks like someone who died.
And now the world is luckier by two,
Because two people look like you.
It's been so very long.
And not, not a day goes by
Without me stopping someone on the street
Just to tell her she looks like someone who died.
And now the world is luckier by two,
Because two people look like you.
The world is luckier by two,
Because two people look like you.
