I stopped in to have a drink with my wife

Remember the things I use to do

I saw a reflection

It was you

A time or two our paths crossed

In a heartbeat we were lost

In arms that held only a soul free

You are as much as I am in need

Little but time has passed us by

Saw the tear of joy in your eyes

A live and well

We could be

I could tell

He stood before a mountain of a man

Said you were once a friend

She is in need of you

A writer of soul

And comfort too

Bodyguard you need

Special your heart

Slow to breed

Wife looked in wonder and surprise

Saw the love still in your eyes

Taking my hand she said we must leave

Some other time went he world

Could need

Escape while you still can

Run from the weaver of tales

This man

In a small coffee house

You take me to places

We could do with out

A truth in the words said

Time hides nothing

Better to be dead

A writer a giver of life

Arrows of time

Pass through like

A knife

We can never be the same

But sing for the throngs of

Every day beings

So beautiful lady takes me to places I have been

Escape from the hideouts of common man

And live the life on the stage

Pay the piper as the flutes plays

In an old coffee shop on the corner of life

I stopped in to have a drink with my wife

Remember the things I use to do

I saw a reflection

It was you
