The Bench
Sitting on a bench
 In front of a vending machine
 Walked on by
 Was a girl whose eyes so green
 I took a look away
 My face unseen
 When she tapped me on the shoulder
 And said we hadn't talked in awhile
 Well we were only gettin' older
 And here we were in this deserted aisle
 Age thirteen
 In front of this vending machine
 My love had become remiss
 I said yeah, paused, and offered a hi
 That's when she smiled and gave me a kiss
 Everything turned to black
 And turned from bliss
 No bench
 No vending machine
 I woke up and it was only a dream.
