Little Sweet Loss
By Owen Temple
3/28/2010
Em C
She was smiling in the sun at a sidestreet café
G D
She had a love in her eyes and an ease in her way
Em C
Like her soul was lit up, her heart rung like a bell
G D
I’ll never know her name but I remember her well
Chorus:
G
People you’re passing on the street
C
They’re the friends you may never meet
G
And everybody’s paid the cost
D C G
Of a little sweet loss
In a downstairs honky tonk, a kindly old gentleman
Sitting at a table alone, a picture of a dog in his hand
He wiped away a tear and I’ll never know just why
What thought going through his head was enough to make him cry
Chorus
Bridge:
Am G
There’s something going on forever in everything around
Am G
Connecting everyone, every sight and sound
Am Em
I can see through a glass darkly but someday face to face
Am C D
What do I hope to find by the end of this race
Looking out from a black and white picture that itself is fifty years old
Sitting at a desk in St. Louis talking on the radio
A girl at twenty five, she hopes to realize her dreams
She and I are not so different, there’s just some time and space between
