Between Two Fools

words shared between old friends
looks passed between past lovers
awkward moments where he pretends
his heart has forgotten hers

like a card game he used to play
but can no longer remember the rules
he says goodbye, she goes on her way
closes his eyes as his heart pulls

love can no longer save the day
in a conversation between two fools

stumbling through sunlit days
her face still appears in dreams
and even in them she seems to say
wait a while, all is not as it seems

years pass but he never forgets
a love once shared long ago
grayed with age and many regrets
setting them aside pulling her close

love will always save the day
in a conversation between two fools
