I saw you at a party with a Starlet on your arm
I counted to a thousand, and managed to stay calm
You didn't see my while I watched you by the door
Make her feel the way that you did me that time before

And she looked Happy, she seemed safe
A smile across her pretty face
She was happy

A gorgeous 5' 10" model danced and shimmied close near by
From my secret look out, I saw you catch her eye
A half an hour later you were with her at the bar
She laughed and tossed her hair back
While you were who you are

And she looked happy
She seemed safe
A smile across her pretty face
She was happy

I made a graceful exit
That is my forte
I slipped into my fast car
And slowly pulled away
It's funny how things work out as they must and do
And now, on reflection, I'm glad I'm not with you

I was happy
I was safe
A smile across my knowing face
I was happy
Almost happy, Almost happy, Almost happy
