You're So Vain Lyrics - Matthew Sweet

You walked into the party like you were walking onto a yacht 

Your hat strategically dipped below one eye 

Your scarf it was apricot 

You had one eye on the mirror as you watched yourself gavotte 

And all the girls dreamed that they'd be your partner 

They'd be your partner, and 

[Chorus] 

You're so vain, you probably think this song is about you 

You're so vain, I'll bet you think this song is about you 

Don't you? don't you? 

You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive 

Well you said that we made such a pretty pair 

And that you would never leave 

But you gave away the things you loved and one of them was me 

I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee 

Clouds in my coffee, and 

[Chorus] 

I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee 

Clouds in my coffee, and 

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga and your horse naturally won 

Then you flew your Lear Jet up to Nova Scotia 

To see the total eclipse of the sun 

Well you're where you should be all the time 

And when you're not you're with 

Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend 

Wife of a close friend, and 

[Chorus]
