Entwined in conversation on this excursion.
It comes around like a lone knock on the door
Someone who connects in an instant and for hours
Who can ask for anything more?
Hands and eyes and coffee cups
Soulmates from a trace of memory.
Nothing to define,
Just a moment of brightness
in the movement of time.
I’ll be your diner girl
You’ll never forget
Peace of mind lost in conversation
No need for any other distraction
To find this elevation.
We breathe with the expanse of sky
Until we have to say goodbye.
I’ll be your diner girl
Fill you up with the brightness
Fill you up like a coffee cup running on empty.
No need for a booth or bar.
Happy with us as we are.
Years go by, but in a moment,
We hear each other’s voices
When you hear my call
I will always send you my all.
I’ll be your diner girl
A spark of joy
To your troubled day.
Wish we could talk for a few more hours,
But already we are stuck for time.
Entwined in conversation on this excursion.
It comes around like a lone knock on the door.
Someone who connects in an instant and for hours
Who can ask for anything more?
