Smoked Glass and Mirrors


By: Felix L. Perry

 

 

Chorus:          Smoked glass and mirrors…tequila and lime

I’ll sit in this bar…till last call closing time

 

She walked out this morning

her heart packed up and free

Left her ring on my truck seat

where she wanted to be

 

I should have told her I loved her

I could have pleaded my case

Like a fool I just stood there

pride wouldn’t let me lose face

 

Chorus

 

Tequila in a smoked glass

salt and lime on the side

Bar mirror hides my sorrow

and reflects all my pride

 

There’ll be teardrops at midnight

in a bed made for two

But for now smoked glass and mirrors

will just have to do

 

Chorus

It's absolutely beautiful and
country songs are great I can picture
the good old boys sitting at the bar with a beer
I love country music especially
Patsy Cline "oh this here Fee is going
To make it to the top
Your lyrics are excellent I'm needing a glass
Of Tequila and salt and some lime!
When I'm sad country and tequila is great
It will kill anything!!

Great title, too, Fee!

Fee:

I can hear this one with music. Great one, full of cowboy angst.

Smoke and mirrors all the way. And that bed for two -- great words for lonely.

hugs,
Kathy
