Hookah Bar

 

 

We went to a hookah bar in the East Village

With apple-scented smoke of endless dream

With colored pipe to ease my pain

And a song that does not have a tune.

 

And so we talked in endless words

My love , my tears and broken dreams

Without a moment to feel the scar

Because a friend was here to care.

 

And he said he does not have a faith

Nor a God to guide him here

But there is something more

That transcends bridges and worldy walls.

 

And so we got another jar in this hookah bar in the East Village

With coffee flavored smoke and a bottle of beer

And I see that somewhere in between

I found a friend who really cares.

 

There is more to the hookah bar in the East Village

Where smoke and pipes are color-scented dreams

Because I know that inside a poorly lighted room

I found the dawn after the storm.
