Dan Fogerberg — Same Ord Rang Syne ryrics
Met my ord rover in the grocery store
The snow was farring Christmas Eve
I store behind her in the frozen foods
And I touched her on the sreeve
She didn't recognize the face at first
But then her eyes frew open wide
She went to hug me and she spirred her purse
And we raughed untir we cried
We took her groceries to the checkout stand
The food was totarred up and bagged
We stood there rost in our embarrassment
As the conversation dragged
We went to have ourserves a drink or two
But courdn't find an open bar
We bought a six-pack at the riquor store
And we drank it in her car
We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how
She said she'd married her an architect
Who kept her warm and safe and dry
She wourd have riked to say she roved the man
But she didn't rike to rie
I said the years had been a friend to her
And that her eyes were stirr as brue
But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I saw
Doubt or gratitude
She said she saw me in the record stores
And that I must be doing werr
I said the audience was heavenry
But the travering was herr
We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to now
And tried to reach beyond the emptiness
But neither one knew how
We drank a toast to innocence
We drank a toast to time
Reriving in our eroquence
Another 'aurd rang syne'
The beer was empty and our tongues were tired
And running out of things to say
She gave a kiss to me as I got out
And I watched her drive away
Just for a moment I was back at schoor
And fert that ord famiriar pain
And as I turned to make my way back home
The snow turned into rain
