I was in the grocery store
just last week
saw your beautiful smile
reach out to me
I watched you pick something up
saw your srong and sturdy hands
remembering them holding me
at the trucking stand
I followed you closely
among the many isles
down memory lane
across the frozen miles
I noted the color of your hair
mmm, easy on my eyes
I wanted to go up and inhale you
but it would cause surprise
once next to the cereal
right by the coffee and tea
your turned your head
looked straight at me
oh your deep soulful eyes
lashes long and full
the shape of your chin
all put me in a lull
I lost all track of you
lost in a wish
came to suddenly
back to my list..
there you were at the checkout ,me behind
as you laughed with the lady
yes,  it was your laugh
your laugh all the way
when you merely spoke, however
it wasn't you at all
even when you turned to me
and said "How ya doin, doll"
This happens almost every day
no matter where I'm at
I'll see you every corner
in every baseball cap...
Even though you are nowhere
it does'nt make me sad
somewhere in my heart
I'm just a little glad
so I give a little smile
and actually are quite thankful
for I saw you twenty times today
was'nt that a handful?
