LYRICS

There I was in uniform

Looking at the art teacher

I was just a girl then

Never have I loved since then

He was not that much older than I was

He had taken our class to the Metropolitan Museum

He asked us what our favourite work of art was

And never could I tell it was him

Oh, I wish I could tell him

Oh, I wish I could have told him

I looked at the Rubens and Rembrandts

I liked the John Singer Sargents

He told me he liked Turner

Never have I turned since then

No, never have I turned to any other man

All this having been said

I married an executive company head

All this having been done

A Turner - I own one

And here I am in this uniformish, pant-suit sort of thing

Thinking of the art teacher

I was just a girl then

Never have I loved since then

No, never have I loved any other man
