Through the Wine Bar Window

It was like a corny scene in a movie
I was running down the street
In the pouring rain
When I saw you
Through the window
Of the wine bar
You know the scene,
Where the heroine sees her lost Soulmate
With his new girlfriend
Through a window
She stands in the rain and watches
Mesmerised
Getting fetchingly wetter and wetter
The camera zooms in on the solitary tear
That, despite the rain
You can still see rolling down her cheek
And the music reaches its crescendo

But that's OK, cos it's a movie
And you know they'll get back together
In the end
And live happily ever after
This wasn't a corny scene
It wasn't romantic getting drenched
And I truly knew the meaning
of the phrase 'gut wrenching'
Then, as I watched you with her
I knew something else
You had never
Ever
Looked at me like that
Touched my hair like that
I knew then
That you had never loved me.
