So I drove all the way to Wal-Mart
went in and stood there a minute
forgotten what I had come for
so I picked a line and got in it
so I wouldn't look silly
just standing there perplexed
while thinking, I picked up a bag
of M&Ms and Reader's Digest

Looked up and there he was
I couldn't think to breathe
he walked up and grabbed my hand
and said he didn't have to leave

I dropped the book and the chocolate
and cried my way out the door
I sat in my car quietly and couldn't think
of what I had come to Wal-Mart for.
