A Story Song ... recorded live ... on the couch

yesterday I went to see my good friend Joe
He was sitting all alone, staring at the telephone
Joe seemed oblivious to the fact that I was there
as he carried on his two way conversation .. with the air
and it went something like this ....
I was thinkin' maybe me and you should get together real soon....
It's been way to long since we went out and kicked up our heels....
They still talk about the things we done back in our home town....
What say we head up there and let everybody buy us a beer...
and let them all remind us just how good we were...
before it all went to hell ...
Well Joe if I agree to go ya gotta make me a promise...
You'll treat this woman the same way that you did back then....
I must admit I sure miss the times that we together...
And I give anything if we could do it all again...
cuz I can remember just how good we were...
before it all went to hell ...
I remember skinny dippin down at Looking Glass Pond
Yeah the whole Sr. class was there, cheering us on....
And that New Years Eve Just had to be our finest hour ...
When we climbed up and made love on top the water tower ... before it all went to hell
Well after awhile Joe looked up and wiped a tear from his eye
He said "Sorry Sam, I just can't seem to get this conversation out of my mind"
This is how it would have went you know ... If I'd have picked up the phone
for months I've been planning on making this call ....
Well I said "Man pick it up and give her a call Joe"
He said "I would Sam ... but I just got word ... she's gone"
I was thinkin' maybe me and you should get together real soon....
