Like I Wasn't Even There

Lyrics
She was sittin' at our table at our favorite old cafe
Cuttin' up and laughin' with new friends
It was the first time I'd seen her since the day she walked away
She noticed me the moment I walked in
I saw those brown eyes, that perfect smile
The candlelight reflectin' off her hair
But she acted like I wasn't even there
In California, sun sinkin' out of sight
Like I didn't hear her say "I love you"
Layin' on the beach that night
Like I wasn't standing in that cafe
Losin' 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, what good would that do?
So I motioned to the waitress, "I'll have a coffee to go
And keep the change," I tried to play it cool
But then I heard that voice above the crowd
I felt like I was tryin' to breathe thin air
And she acted like I wasn't even there
Up in the Rockies, 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
Losin' her all over again
All I could do was stare
While 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
