Hey Man
Julia O’Donovan
Hey man
Good to see you again
I think about you a lot
This time of year
You were a smart dog
to leave when you did
And I keep saying
One day I’ll get out too
Congratulations too
I hear it’s been
Two years in June
Who would have thought?
We always said
We’d be the last
To tie ourselves down
I hear she’s done you good
And you’re looking good
Barely notice the scar
And I’ll never know
How we got out alive
Yeah, Fran’s still
Bangin’ that bowler
But he still won’t bring her home
Because of Religion
So they’re still putting the seats
Down in her car
She’ll never know romance
She’s too afraid
Funny thinking about it
You know she left Eddie
When he threatened her freedom
But he wanted her with him
Now she clings
To a guy
Who doesn’t respect her
And never will
No she still won’t
Talk to me
But I know
She’s not over it yet
I know because
I know she misses
Someone who cares
And she knows I still do
All that I could have been
Is all that I should have been
Man you know,
I still think that everyday
Sometimes I wonder
Did I let it all pass by?
I really wonder
Will I get out of here alive
Sorry man
I know you moved on
Never expecting
To come back again
Well have a drink of this
Before you go
Was good to see you
Take care, Man
