Coat Pocket

Intro (A Capella Chorus)

 

Verse 1

One step out the backdoor

Back inside, I needed something more,

To wear, there was a chill in the air.

Grabbed my old red jacket,

Been so long, I thought I’d lost it.

Surprise, when I realized, what was lost inside, my coat pocket.

 

Chorus

There were postcards, from places we use to stay

Trail maps that helped us find our way

Lipstick painted tissues and an old bottle cap,

A love note hid inside a Hershey wrap.

There was a hair tie, from the time you let

My hair fall down and I’ll never forget

The Crackerjack prize we cherished after the snack

We shared at sunset by the railroad track

All inside my coat pocket.

 

Verse 2

I smiled just thinking ‘bout you

As I took the time to renew

Wo-oh, has it been that long ago?

Crazy how small treasures

Bring to mind, all life’s pleasures

We shared, and what takes me there

Is what’s lost inside my coat pocket

 

Chorus

There were postcards, from places we use to stay

Trail maps that helped us find our way

Lipstick painted tissues and an old bottle cap,

A love note hid inside a Hershey wrap.

There was a hair tie, from the time you let

My hair fall down and I’ll never forget

The Crackerjack prize we cherished after the snack

We shared at sunset by the railroad track

All inside my coat pocket.

 

Last Verse

My coat hangs on the last hook

Now and then, I stop and take a look

And it brings a smile

Thinking what’s inside my coat pocket.

 

-- End –
