Not What You See



Barry Manilow - Not What You See - Текст песни

Wait a minute baby 
I'll be right back 
I just gotta talk 
to a friend 
for a couple of minutes 

I see you looking 
at the two of us 
and what do you see 
the oldest couple at the Mayflower 
Esther and Me 

I push her in the chair 
I know she'd walk 
if she could 
she says "Take your pills" 
as if they do any good 

I'll bet you think 
that what you're looking 
at is all we are 
two old people forgetting 
the way we were 
Sonny, no one is 
what they look like 
everyone's so much more 
Sonny, no one is 
what they look like 
and we're not what 
you see that's for sure 

You should have known her before 
you should have known her before 
legs she had legs 
that made the guys drool 
and her waist was as small 
as your neck 
and the face and the hair 
and the rest of her 
and when I look at her now 
I still see her young and beautiful 
she's my girl and I'm her Joe 
and we're not what you see 

In a minute baby I'll be right back 
I just got some more to say 
to my young new friend here 

Esther just turned 80 and I'm 83 
the oldest couple at the Mayflower 
Esther and me 
I knew that when I saw her 
we were meant to be one 
she says she didn't notice me 
but don't you believe her 

I'll bet you think that what you're looking at 
is all we are 
two old people 
stumbling through the days 

Sonny, no one is what 
they look like 
everyone's so much more 
Sonny, no one is what 
they look like 
and we're not what you see 
that's for sure 

You should have known me before 
you should have known me before 
hair, I had hair the girls 
loved to feel and a built 
watch out Joe Poluka 
I could see I could hear 
I could run a mile 
and when I dream of us now 
I still see us young and beautiful 
she's my girl and I'm her Joe 
and we're not what you see 

I guess I better go now 
she's my family 
the oldest couple 
at the Mayflower 
Esther and Me 
I'll help her with her bath 
and then I'll kiss her goodnight 
and sometime's we dance 
in the early moonlight 

I'll bet you think that what 
you're looking at is all we are 
two old people 
watching the days go by 
Sonny, no one is what 
they look like 
everyone's so much more 
Sonny no one is what 
they look like 
and we're not what you see 
that's for sure 

I'll be right there darlin'
