Not What You See |
| 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' |
