Isn't it strange after all these years
2 old friends sitting having beers
Talking of old times and changing the memories as we go
Remembering them like they were just yesterday though
The laughter we shared
The tears for each other we had shed
And the love for each other that burned inside
That nothing we did could hide
Sitting here drinking and smiling at each other
Just like the days long ago when we were together
So in love that days were filled with smiles
When we were vulnerable to each other's wiles
The look in your eyes is the same I remember from all those years ago
The beauty in your face and spirit still brightly aglow
Makes me wonder why we went seperate ways
What caused us to be apart for so many days
You ask me how's the wife
I say we divorced there was too much strife
I ask how are your kids and what's his name
You say the kids are in high school and he's the same
You look deep into my eyes and touch my hand
And after all these years I still understand
It comes back clear as day
why we had to go seperate ways
We had a love so deep and pure
but it scared us and made us unsure
We did all we could to hurt each other
for we were so damned scared to be together
Years pass by and the bad times forgotten
And for just right now we remember the love we shared way back then
Knowing it'll never happen again
Knowing that we can go back to way beck when
Well you say he's waiting at home
And we'll talk later on the phone
But as you walk away
I remember you saying the same words our last day.............

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
