i met the old woman in the store

i met the old woman in the store
she had a smile on her face
there was a way that she moved me
from my frozen place
and had me open my mind
and make myself smile
it'd been a long time
we hadn't spoken in awhile
but as we talked
the memories came back
and as i stood there with her
i began to relax
and i had this strange feeling
that my walls were torn down
and i was no longer stonefaced
and stopped speaking with a growl
instead i was something new
and free and fine an dpleased
and she acted like she knew me
and spoke to me with ease
and we covered many topics
from hello to future plans
and how i really dont intend
on staying in these lands
but the talk remained upbeat
although we'd both had it rough
i could see it in the look of her eye
saw through ehr kind bluff
but again the way we opened
were real and not a plan
and she made me reveal myself
again and again
it was new to me ands stuck awhile
i wodner for how long
but i thought i'd take advantage
and put together this song
old woman of the store
i lvoed running into you
and im glad for your gift
youve maanged to make me moved
and ive shifted my thinking
and ive adopted yours for the moment
my mind open and thinking
happy we spoken got a mint?
