Willie Mae

Remember that day we walked across the whole town Trying to blend in to the dogwood trees Pretending we were all alone, we had our satellites down Oh, Willie Mae, imagine where we would be Have I heard from James up north you're back home now He told me you're working for your daddy installing heat Seaside's not too far from me anyhow Oh, Willie Mae, do you think we can meet I know you want withdrawal from your past life, you've made that clear The only thing you left with was yourself and a lonely tear Remember that old park bench near the retaining wall The one that faced the woods, we'd sit there thoughtless for days Those memories don't seem much to me at all Oh, Willie Mae, our friendship's gone in the haze
