WALK’D IN SMILING
SHE SAW ME
GREETIN’ WITH
SPARKLIN’ EYES
SAYIN’ HOW ARE YOU
SIT ANY WHERE
I’LL SERVE YAH!
SITTIN’ AT THE TABLE
DRINKIN’ MY COFFEE
TRYIN’ NOT TO
STARE
WATCHIN’ THE TUBE
OFF AND ON
AND THE
PASSERBY’S
SHE SAYS CAN I SIT
A BIT ACROSS
FROM ME
I SMILE SAYIN’
SURE HUN
YOU OK
YOU LOOK TIRED
SHE SAYS
SOMETIMES
I JUST WANT
TO SAY
FUCK IT ALL
I LOOK AT HER
SAYING WHATEVER IT
IS BOTHERIN’ YOU
KNOW THIS
KEEP YOUR HEAD UP
HANG IN THERE
CAUSE IT WILL
BE ALRIGHT
AND KNOW
YOU’ RE NOT MY
ONLY FRIEND
THAT’S SAID THAT
LATELY
TOO MANY HAVE
I LISTEN TO HER
TRY TO SAY
WHAT’S ON HER
MIND
BUT WORK CALLS
HER AWAY
SHE BRINGS ME MORE
COFFEE THEN
HER PHONE RINGS
ITS ANOTHER
MUTUAL FRIEND
SHE SAYS HANG ON
I FINISH MY THIRD
CUP OF COFFEE
AND REST
OF MY BREAKFAST
FOR LUNCH
WHEN I CAN
I TELL HER
THINGS GOING ON
IN MY LIFE
AND HOW I SOLD
ANOTHER PIECE OF ARTWORK
THINKING LATER
AS SHE’S RINGIN’
ME OUT
I LEAVE NOT SAYIN’
A WORD
ABOUT WHAT’S
ON MY MIND
I SHOULD HAVE
SAID CALL ME
HERE’S MY
NUMBER
SO WE CAN CHAT
BETTER
AT A LATER
TIMEFRAME
BUT NOPE I
JUST WALK OUT
NOT THINKING
LATER I RUN
INTO THE FRIEND
THAT WAS ON THE PHONE
SHE SAID HER
CAR IS MESSED UP
AGAIN
AND THE ONE
I WAS GETTIN’
COFFEE WITH
WAS COMING TO
GET HER
I SAY HAVE
A GOOD DAY
AND HOPE IT ALL
WORKS OUT
TELL HER I SAID HI
AGAIN NOT
SAYING WHAT’S
ON MY MIND
I GO INSIDE
AND DO MY
SHOPPIN’
WITH BOTH ON
MY MIND
THEN I RUN
INTO ANOTHER
FRIEND
AT A PERFECT
MOMENT
SHE SAYS
YOU ALMOST FINISHED
I COULD GIVE
YOU A RIDE HOME
I AM GOING
THAT DIRECTION
I AM LIKE YES
THAT WOULD BE GREAT
I GET HOME
THINKING I
SHOULD SO FIND
A WAY
TO GET THE TIME
TO INVITE
MY FRIENDS
OVER FOR
SOME CHATTIN’
TIME AND COFFEE
WE NEVER GET
TO DO THAT MUCH
EVERYONE IS ALWAYS
ON THE GO
AND HERE I AM
ON THE TURTLE’S PACE
YET I AM ALRIGHT
IN COMPARISON
ROUGH TIMES
ALL AROUND
YOU NEVER KNOW
HOW YOU THINK
OH MY LIFE
SUCKS
OH I AM ACHING TODAY
BUT DOING OK
THEN SOMEONE
ELSE COMES ALONG
AND TELLS
YOU SOMETHING
ROUGHER
THAN WHATEVER
IT IS YOU ARE GOING
THROUGH
I FEEL PRETTY
BLESSED
WITH THE LITTLE
I HAVE
IT GETS ME BY
COULD BE BETTER
THEN I COULD
HELP MY
FRIENDS OUT MORE
FROM TIME
TO TIME
ITS LIKE
THE HAMMER HITTING
THE STEEL
EACH LEAVING
A MARK
YET WHEN ITS DONE
IT HAS THE
VERY COOL
AESTHETIC LOOK
TO IT
SO
I FEEL I AM NOW
THE HAMMER’D STEEL
AND
MY FRIENDS
ARE STILL
TAKING THE BANGS
TO REACH
THE SAME
SPOTS IN LIFE
WE ALL GET TIRED
WE ALL FEEL
THE SAME
YET WE ALL
DEAL WITH
EVERYTHING
LIFE THROWS
OUR WAY
IN DIFFERENT WAYS
YET WHEN WE
CAN WE ALL
COME TOGETHER
TO SUPPORT
EACH OTHER
WITH LITTLE
RANDOM ACTS
OF KINDNESS
CAUSE
THAT IS WHAT LIFE
IS ALL
ABOUT... =)
