The Doobie Brothers – What A Fool Believes Lyrics 7 years ago
I think it's about the guy remembering her more fondly than she remembers him. He was infatuated with her, but he "never made her think twice." They run into each other and he tells her some story from the past that she doesn't remember or care much about.

In his mind, she was important to him and he had feelings for her. She didn't feel the same way. "As he rises to her apology, anybody else would surely know, he's watching her go."

She's saying "It was nice to run into you again, but I've got to go." She apologizes for cutting his reminiscence short and leaving, but it meant nothing to her anyway. He'd built up the fantasy possibility of their having had something, while she never thought they did.
