When I See This Bar

Well, I see the souls of so many friends
 And I see us all back here again
 With sandy floors and celing fans
 A rastafarian one-man band
 With songs that fill my memories like a tip jar
 Yeah, that's what I see
 When I see this bar
 
 I see tourists at Christmas time
 And I taste beers with a hint of lime
 I feel lonely 'cause it's not the same
 Different faces and different names
 Living like pirates out among the stars
 Yeah, that's what I see
 When I see this bar
 ♪
 Pieces of our past slowly slip away
 But time just stands still
 When I walk in this place
 And I see a kid coming into his own
 And a man learning to move on
 ♪
 Somehow trying to find his way
 A dreamer betting on blind faith
 And Chasing that sun and following his heart
 Yeah, that's what I see
 When I see this bar
 ♪
 Pieces of our past slowly slip away
 ♪
 But time just stands still
 When I walk in this place
 
 A few have moved on back to Maine
 Jacksonville and Key Biscayne
 
 Some are still living the dream
 Stuck in still life it seems
 No matter where they've been or where they are
 Yeah, I see 'em here

 When I see this bar
 When I see this bar
 I wonder where I'll go from here
 ♪
 That's what I see when I see this bar
 Life ain't over but it's always near
 That's what I see when I see this bar
 I think about all the good times that we had
 That's what I see when I see this bar
 Makes me happy and it Makes me sad
 That's what I see when I see this bar
 How could we be so close, now so far apart
 That's what I see when I see this bar
 That's what I feel, that's what I see when I see this bar
 Yeah, we're living like pirates and wanna be stars
 That's what I see when I see this bar
 That's what I see when I see his bar
