Today the weather was so pretty
EA
At noon I went out for a stroll
AD
I walked and did some window shopping
EA
And met someone I used to know
DA
The years had been kind to her beauty
DB7E
When I first saw her my heart jumped
AD
Tonight if I seem disenchanted
EA
I took a memory to lunch
We sat and talked about the old days
With misty teardrops in our eyes
And reconfirmed an old suspicion
The past grows old but never dies
The charm that draws two hearts together
By four o' clock was just too much
The days and years we had between us
Were down to just two coffee cups

You can't relive life in an hour

The afternoon kept wearing on

I'm sorry that I'm late for dinner
FBb
I took a memory to lunch
