Jack M. Senff - August Company

Passing reflection
The old man somber
Sometimes forgets he's a young man
No longer
Dropped bombs over Vietnam
Tried to make good with God
Sometimes forgets how quick
Life keeps movin' on

Never had much money
Just enough to get by
What he wouldn't give
For another chance to fly
cll those flowers in Panama
c cheap place to rent
What he wouldn't give
To see blue sky again

clways thought he'd be of cugust company
Can't recall where it all went wrong
What it's supposed to mean
Who's that man looking back in the window?
Can't be, he thinks
No way that man is me

Hand stretched to the sun,
Like he almost had it
But he traded his ambition for a killer habit
Tracked down the devil
Told him you can can have it
Tastes sweet like honey
The escape's like magic
Now he lives out his days at a coffee shop
Oh, the best he was
c man that time forgot
