John T. Wurzer - Tess

Inside a smokey poolroom
In the corner of the floor
A woman glows and no one knows
The lives she's lived before
Across that hazy barroom
A ring around her smile
I looked that way just yesterday
And found I'm still on trial

With the shadows of a moment
Still emblazoned on my soul
I've got a road to travel
I've got some dice to roll
The sky outside is clouded
By the foggy mist of time
Impossible to see through
Impossible to rhyme

The air inside is stagnant
Until I see your face
A springtime breeze that shatters
Every painful spiteful trace
And all at once I think there's hope
I think I realize
There's love on the horizon
And understanding in your eyes

Inside a smokey poolroom
In the corner of the floor
I see your glow and no one knows
The lives you've lived before
Without a flash of excellence
Without a point of view
But it's only me who's dreaming here
And obviously not you
