I Didn't Recognize You Rick Adams 2025

Chatting with a stranger in a restaurant
Travel talk while we ate croissants
Then I realized who was speaking to
Shame on me I didn't recognize you

Shame Shame Shame on Me
I'm swimming in a sea of humil-ity
I loved you once/ I think you loved me too
Shame on me I didn't recognize you

Scratched my head wonderin just what changed
Somethings different but you look the same
Downtown poise and a smile that's new
Shame on me I didn't recognize you

Shame, Shame, Shame...

Was the girl I knew really the woman you are?
Did I miss the boat ? How did you come this far?
Ashamed at my lame apology
I forgot to ask if you recognized me

Breakfast was over and she gave a wink
I said I know you / She said that's what you think
Now her next words I never will forget
Keep your shame cause we never met

Shame Shame ...

I didn't recognize you, I didn't recognize you, I didn't recognize you
