When I was with you I was a millionaire The life of the party, handsome and debonair When I would leave, without fail Eyes of the women would cling to my coattails When I was with you I was a movie star Cameras would flash when I sprang from my car My accent was nearly authentic Every gesture was tres photogenic But the sun's up too long And the bed is all wrong There's sheet where your feet were And space where your face was I've forgotten what my place was But I knew, I'm sure I knew When I was with you I was a confidante The keeper of secrets for dandies and debutantes They'd whisper to me their cherished infraction End with a flourish and gauge my reaction When I was with you I was a clever thing Words came together like pearls on a string Everyone cheered in amazement When they would catch what my turn of a phrase meant But the sun's up too long And the bed is all wrong There's sheet where your feet were And space where your face was I've forgotten what my place was But I knew, I'm sure I knew When I was with you
