Catch 7 When She Said Hello
Living in bed alone with his thoughts for a companion Talking to shadows on the wall Another shot of vodka and a cry that cuts the darkness Then there's a knock at the door Standing in his hallway staring at the silouette on his porch Who is this at 2:19 AM He turns on the porch light and she squints at the brightness Then she smiles at the friendly face within And when she said hello the nervousness was gone When she said hello all the shadows left the wall When she said hello they were both up in the sky And when she said hello... A friend from the past with a friendly face to greet him She was as pretty as he recalled The nervousness surrounds him and he hasn't even touched the door Unlocking the barrier he lets her in And when she said hello the nervousness was gone When she said hello all the shadows left the wall When she said hello they were both up in the sky And when she said hello...he replied It's great to see you it's great to see you she said He invited her in and made some joe Offered her a smoke and lit it up for her They relived the memories from years past The memories, the memories from years past And when she said hello the nervousness was gone When she said hello the shadows left the wall And when she said hello they were both up in the sky And when she said hello... At 4:22 AM she said she had to leave She apologized for coming so late at night No apology needed he said as he walked her to her door A hug and a kiss and she was gone But when she said hello the nervousness left him When she said hello the shadows left the wall Now that she's gone he's alone with his thoughts again And yet there is hope till she comes around to say hello again Hello again Submitted by Jeremy D'Apolito
