Chance Meeting At The Tarantula Lyrics
John Mellencamp
Hey, dont I know you from somewhere
Yeah, it was down in new orleans
In one of those back-street bars in the quarter
Between desire and honalee
You were dancin with a friend of michaels
I remember how we met
You were talkin to ol jimmy
And you lit my cigarette
Chorus:
How come you cant remember?
This is me youre talkin to
From may through september
It was all about me n you, baby
It was all about me n you
Well it looks like to me
That you have conveniently forgotten everything
This confusion that has surrounded you
Is this your morality and not your brain
Youve got a birthmark below your navel
You wear a size seven and a half shoe
You got this rolex watch that I suspect you cobbed
From that doctor who said he loved you
Chorus:
How come you cant remember?
This is me youre talkin to
From may through september
It was all about me n you, baby
It was all about me n you
Well you told me that you lived in the wind
Like a bird who never touched the ground
And if you did you would surely die without making a sound
Live, lets live, thats all you kept sayin
And our summer was full of life
Were gonna send them a postcard, and show em what its like to be alive
But I never wanted to leave your side
No, I just couldnt believe that youd lie
No, I never wanted to say good-bye baby
Chorus:
How come you cant remember?
This is me youre talkin to
From may through september
It was all about me n you, baby
It was all about me n you
