Passerby

Aiyo, show some class, fill your wine glass and listen to this track

Enjoy some jazz as you unwind, detach your mind and relax

 

I see hundreds of faces every day and they all seem gloomy

It seems they're reminded of choices that lead to a miss opportunity

Their dreams were silenced voices that lead to that Miss looking lonely

She screams Sir hold my glasses, lights a cigarette, now they're slowly

Leaning towards each other, a bus splashes water, gets them, geez

Smiling, he says my name is Joey, your glasses are washed, teeth

Gleaming, she smiles, I'm Katie, you making a pass at moi, I tease.

Dreaming, he smiles, listen lady, here's a magic trick, Ta Da, She's

Elevating into the blue skies, it's cloudy, she slips, o la la, He's

Staring into her blue eyes, it's 12:30, he splits, aha She's

Glaring at his back, no good bye, oh sweetie, I see mama Louise

Warning me to not interact, men in bowties are dreamy but Sleazy

 

Distances apart both wonder when their heartache started

Emptiness in heart, both ponder if it was that one place they departed

Bitterness imparts both to wander the streets and embrace the uncharted

Metropolis which sparks afly yonder, they meet, eyes glaze, the fated

Romanticists embarks under the suns retreat, hand exchanges, waited

For the right time, night time, white wine, twighlight entwined, heated

Katie needed air, twirled her hair then twirled to stare, Joey proceeded

Lips connected midair, whirled his hands across her bare back, fleeted

Feelings beckoning a stealing kiss wielding a pleasing sensation negated

The underrated underdog, Joey, he under-saw the truth and understood

The one who stood infront of him would be the one who stood on his wedding cake

Oh for gods sake, years later, that wedding date photo keepsake

Became portrayed as a mistake, Joey spake 1+1 equate 2

But not me and you, debates grew, heartache ensue

Katie, is it true? The day you said I do? Looked straight Through

Me and said, "I'm afraid to be betrayed and I prayed for a mate, you,

see I laid the queen of spades, and stayed, sunny rays or rain, I knew

I loved you, I do, we downed a few brews, got matching tattoos".

 

One look into your eyes, took me by surprise

Like a Crook in the night who took the price-

Less artwork, regardless, my heart yearns

For a world with you and I, in search

For a destiny, Bonny and Clyde, on the Outskirts

 

Joey, it feels like our relationship is a dessert,

Slowly, it seems our ships have reversed

We dream but our lips never perch.

But Katie, if we are in a dessert, be my sun and burst

Into a ball of flames, your'e my hall of fame,

don't let me be your walk of shame. Let' remain.

the same, you and I,
