You Look So Good In Love
by George Strait
Oh, how you sparkle
And oh how you shine
The blush on your cheeks
Is more than the wine
And he must do something
That I didn't do
Whatever he's doing
It look's good on you
You look so good in love
You want him
That's easy to see
You look so good in love
And I wish
You still wanted me
He must have stolen
Some stars from the sky
And gave them to you
To wear in your eyes
And I had my chances
But I set you free
And now I wonder
Why I couldn't see
You look so good in love
You want him
That's easy to see
You look so good in love
I wish
You still wanted me
(spoken:)
Darling I've wasted a lot of years
Not seeing the real you
But tonight your beauty is shining through
And I never took the time to let you know
So before he takes you away
Please let me say ....
You look so good in love
You want him
That's easy to see
You look so good in love
I wish
You still wanted me
You look so good in love
You want him
That's easy to see
You look so good in love
Ric stepped off the elevator and into the Metro Court restaurant wanting to get a bite to eat before heading back to the office for another long night with a lot of paperwork that had piled up. As the hostess seated him at a corner table he couldn't help but notice his ex wife Alexis on the dance floor with her new beau, Jerry. They were just gliding across the floor to the soft music that was playing. He noticed her because she looked happy, the happiest she had been in a very long time.After the waitress came and took his order, he got up enough courage to break in and ask her to dance with him. As they came around closer to him he tapped Jerry on the shoulder.
"May I cut in?" Ric asked as Alexis looked surprised that he would even ask.
Jerry looked at Alexis for approval and she nodded. "It's okay, Jerry."
Jerry stepped away from the dance floor leaving Alexis with Ric to dance the next dance together. Ric took Alexis in his arms and began to dance with her as the next song started to play.
"I just wanted to tell you that you look beautiful tonight." Ric started off the conversation in the hopes that she would accept another apology and his kind words.
"Thank you ..." Alexis replied wondering if he alterior motives for wanting to dance with her.
"It's nice to see you happy, Alexis. I'm happy to see you finally found someone who can make you smile."
"Jerry's been good to me. And I am very happy with him."
"I know I can see it in your eyes. I just wish I could of done the same. I've wasted a lot of years not seeing what was staring me in the face. I messed up and I'm sorry."
"Ric, a lot happened during the time we were together. We had some really good times together, and some really bad ones. I'd like to remember the good ones and remember what we were together in the happy times of our marriage. There's no need to dwell on the bad stuff."
As the song came to an end, Jerry started to approach them ready to take Alexis away from him. "Before he comes to take you from me, let me just say this one last thing." Ric said as he saw Jerry walking towards them.
"Okay ...."
"You were the best thing that ever happened to me, Alexis. You gave me a beautiful daughter that I adore and some many happy memories I will not soon forget. I'm glad that Jerry makes you happy and that you have that sparkle back in your eyes when you are with him. I just wish it was me who you wanted..." his words drifted off as he left her standing in the middle of the dance floor alone.
Jerry came up to her and whisked her away to the other side of the dance floor, but Alexis wondered if given the chance, if Ric could make her happy. They were very happy in the beginning of their marriage, they have a daughter together, yet they couldn't make it work.
Ric sat at his table set for one and watched from afar, as Jerry and Alexis enjoyed their dance. Ric couldn't help but think if given another chance with Alexis, if he would be able to make things right and make the one person he loves so much, very happy. He sighed, because it was all a dream that will never come true. She was falling in love with another man, and it was so obvious to him that another man made her happier than he ever could.
