I Thought It Was You Lyrics - Singles - Doug Stone

I called your name out loud to a stranger yesterday 

When she turned around, I said, "I'm sorry" and just walked away 

From a distance she had that look 

And for a second or two 

I thought it was you, it took a moment to catch my breath 

Tried to brace myself, still don't have a clue 

How to leave your memory behind after all this time 

I hear there's one special love in each life 

Well, I must look like a fool, I thought it was you 

I still drive by your house takin' trips down memory lane 

We had our future worked out 

At least we did on that old porch swing 

Today in my rear view mirror I saw an old Malibu 

And girl, I thought it was you, it took a moment to catch my breath 

Tried to brace myself, still don't have a clue 

How to leave your memory behind after all this time 

I hear there's one special love in each life 

Well, I must look like a fool, I thought it was you
