Chance Meeting at the Tarantula Lyrics

John Mellencamp

Hey don′t I know you from somewhere
Yes it's down in New Orleans
In one of those back street bars in the quarter
Between Desire and Honore
You were dancing with a friend of Michael′s
I remember how we met
You were talking to old Jimmy
And you lit my cigarette

How come you can't remember
This is me you're talking to
From May through September
It was all about me and you baby
It was all about me and you

Well it looks like to me that you have conveniently
Forgotten everything
This confusion that has surrounded you
Is your morality not your brain
You′ve got a birthmark below your navel
You wear a size seven shoe
You got this Rolex watch that I suspect you copped
From that doctor who said he loved you

How come you can′t remember
This is me you're talking to
From May through September
It was all about me and you baby
It was all about me and you

Well you told me that you lived on the wind
Like a bird who never touched the ground

And if you did you would surely die
Without making a sound
Live let′s live that's all you can say
And our summer was full of life
We′re gonna send them a postcard
To show 'em what it′s like to be alive
But I never want to leave your side
No I just couldn't believe that you lied
No I never want to say goodbye baby

How come you can't remember
This is me you′re talking to
From May through September
It was all about me and you baby
It was all about me and you
