I was known once
not just a fleeting glance
a passing turn
a knowing smile
not just a wave
not just a 'how ya doing'
not just a 'What ya up to'
Their were friends
people i saw
people who saw me
no longer
now im just
that guy
oh you know the one
works at so and so
oh i know who you mean
always says hello
whats his name again
i dont recall
nice guy though
yeah nice guy


Take a good look at my face
Well, don't my smile look out of  place
look a little closer its easy to trace
The tracks of my tears

Nice guys usually have lots of friends and your talent with words says you are a nice guy so I am sure there are lots of people who care about you...I know that the people here at the blue pages care about you...that is just the way people here are....*hugs*
