I saw a man today who said he 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
It's 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
I 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
It's a mighty long time
To get a real love off your mind, I know
I've tried since fifteen years ago...
