Louise

	When he saw her getting of the bus
	It seemed to wipe away the years
	Her face was older, just a little rough
	But her eyes were still so clear
	He drank his coffee and he hurried out
	Across before she walked away
	Then he approached her like a little child
	Too scared for what he had to say
	"hello, louise,
	Remember me?
	Now should we part
	Or stay awhile?
	As if we were still lovers"
	She took a moment just to recognise the man she'd known so well before
	And as he started to apologise
	Lose any bitterness she bore
	She gently put her finger on his lips
	To let him know she understood
	And with her suitcase standing on the floor
	Embraced him like a lover would
	He told louise
	"you look so good
	It's just you see
	You make me feel
	As if we were still lovers"
	It's not always true that time heals all wounds
	There are wounds that you don't wanna heal
	The memories of something really good
	Something truly real, that you never found again
	And though they talked for just a little time
	Before she said she had to go
	He saw the meeting as a tiny sign
	That told him all he had to know
	And so louise
	Waved from the bus
	And as she left
	She gave that smile
	As if they were still lovers
