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 Favorite Work Of Art Was,
But 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
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
