He’s a good guy
But has he weaknesses
Coffee and whiskey
And funny cigarettes
Same street cafe
Come rain or shine
He reads and he leaves
Sees no one he’s blind
She’s guessing he’s an ex soldier
Or presidential guard
Sees it in his eyes
Sense it in his scars
If you try to engage
Will you be saved
How does love work
For someone who’s paid
The price for a country
How does love work
When you’ve seen what he’s seen
The night time is worst
Sometimes fear calls over
To push like a curse
To stand on your shoulder
You can’t get away
From inside your head
You can’t even say
Why your soul feels dead
