I met you at the zoo
you were in front of the bears
and the lions too
when you made fun of the monkeys
I already knew
I wanted to try some monkey business with you

I met you at the park
just strolling around
till the sky got dark
you were walking your dog
and feeding the ducks
and I thought to myself
that's one man i'd like to--
(no, no no no no)

I met you at the cafe
just sipping your latte
with nothing to say
when you looked up at me
from over your scone
I knew right away
that you wanted to take me home

I met you for the last time
walking out of my door
and slipping your hand from mine
you looked up at the sky
and down at your shoes
and I knew from then on
that I needed to sing the blues

&

The rain that strikes the window pane falls
bundled up I await your phone call
when your voice crackles on the other end
I feel like hallelujah and amen
