Matinee

Matinee, seats for two
I was there, where were you?
Matinee, curtain call
And a hush through the hall
I had hoped you'd arrive
As the stage came alive
With a show about a boy
Who loved a girl as I loved you
When they kissed, it tore my heart out
Once our love was like this
And I acted every part out
As I thought of your kiss
Matinee and seats for two
I was there, but where were you?
Then, like us, they had a quarrel
And she left him alone
But their story has a moral
That we both should have known
Love that's true never did run smooth
Matinee, true to life
With the joy and the strife
They were sad as could be
That was you, that was me
But they kissed at the finale
And my heart melted away
Matinee, seats for two
I was there, where were you today?
Matinee, true to life
With the joy and the strife
They were sad as could be
That was you, that was me
But they kissed at the finale
And my heart melted away
Matinee, seats for two
I was there, where were you today?
