Met my old lover in the grocery store [00:00:18]

The snow was falling Christmas Eve [00:00:22]

I stole behind her in the frozen foods [00:00:27]

And I touched her on the sleeve [00:00:31]

She didn't recognize the face at first [00:00:36]

But then her eyes flew open wide [00:00:40]

She went to hug me and she spilled her purse [00:00:45]

And we laughed until we cried [00:00:49]

We took her groceries to the checkout stand [00:01:12]

The food was totalled up and bagged [00:01:17]

We stood there lost in our embarrassment [00:01:21]

As the conversation dragged [00:01:24]

We went to have ourselves a drink or two [00:01:29]

But couldn't find an open bar [00:01:34]

We bought a six-pack at the liquor store [00:01:39]

And we drank it in her car [00:01:42]

We drank a toast to innocence [00:01:48]

We drank a toast to now [00:01:51]

And tried to reach beyond the emptiness [00:01:56]

But neither one knew how [00:02:00]

She said she'd married her an architect [00:02:05]

Who kept her warm and safe and dry [00:02:09]

She would have liked to say she loved the man [00:02:14]

But she didn't like to lie [00:02:17]

I said the years had been a friend to her [00:02:23]

And that her eyes were still as blue [00:02:27]

But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I saw [00:02:32]

Doubt or gratitude [00:02:36]

She said she saw me in the record stores [00:02:41]

And that I must be doing well [00:02:45]

I said the audience was heavenly [00:02:49]

But the traveling was hell [00:02:53]

We drank a toast to innocence [00:02:59]

We drank a toast to now [00:03:02]

And tried to reach beyond the emptiness [00:03:07]

But neither one knew how [00:03:11]

We drank a toast to innocence [00:03:16]

We drank a toast to time [00:03:19]

Reliving in our eloquence [00:03:25]

Another 'auld lang syne' [00:03:28]

The beer was empty and our tongues were tired [00:03:37]

And running out of things to say [00:03:42]

She gave a kiss to me as I got out [00:03:46]

And I watched her drive away [00:03:50]

Just for a moment I was back at school [00:03:55]

And felt that old familiar pain [00:04:01]

And as I turned to make my way back home [00:04:08]

The snow turned into rain[00:04:12]
