Sammy Kershaw - Like I Wasn't Even There lyrics

rate me

(Monty Criswell, Wesley Hightower, Timothy Ray Menzies)

She was sitting at our table

In our favorite old cafe

??? up, laughing with new friends

It was the first time I had seen her

Since the day she walked away

She noticed me the moment I walked in

I saw her brown eyes and perfect smile

The candle light reflecting off her hair

But she acted like I wasn't even there

In California, sun sinking out of sight

Like I didn't hear her say, "I love you"

Laying on the beach that night

Like I wasn't standing in that cafe

Losing her all over again

All I could do was stare

While she acted like I wasn't even there

I thought I might walk over

Then she'd have to say, "Hello"

But then again just what good would that do?

So I motioned to the waitress

"I'll take a call for you to go

And keep that change, I'll try to play it cool"

Then I heard that voice above the crowd

I felt like I was trying to breathe thin air

And she acted like I wasn't even there

In the rock with that diamond in my hand

Like we didn't talk about forever

A picket fence on a little land

Like I wasn't standing in that cafe

Losing her all over again

All I could do was stare

How she acted like I wasn't even there

Surely I'm still in her heart somewhere

But she acted like I wasn't even there
