Cigar from Old Friend - Rustic Melodies

Saw you sitting by the window side

Same old hat same steady eyes

Years rolled on but not too far

You still lit that same old cigar

Walked in slow you looked my way

Didn't smile much but that's your way

Just nodded once like nothing changed

Like time just paused instead of aged

No need for words no need to pretend

Some things don't break they just bend

You slid a cigar from your coat sleeve set

Sit down son don't you leave

No big speech no grand hello

Just smoke arising soft and slow

And in that quiet I understood

Some bonds don't fade they just stay good

Ain't no need to say it out loud

When it's a cigar from an old friend now

Talked about roads we used to ride

The ones we lost the ones we tried

Some names came up some stayed gone like ghosts

We carry along you said world's still turning

The same but not every man stays in the game

I saw that weight behind your eyes

A truce you never disguised

Ash fell down like time gone by

We didn't ask the reason why

You passed that flame with a steady hand

Like you knew I'd understand

No need to fix what life has done

Just share the smoke till the night is gone

And in that silence I found some peace

Like the past gave me a brief release

Ain't no words could say it proud

Like a cigar from an old friend now

Didn't ask where you've been all these years

Didn't talk about regrets or fears

Just let the moment speak its truth

Like we did back in our youth

That cigar burned down to the end

Like every road we couldn't mend

But something stayed in that quiet night

That made the weight feel a little light

No promises no need to pretend

Just two old souls meeting again

And I'll carry that moment somehow

That cigar from an old friend now

You stood up slow tipped your hat

Didn't say much more than that

And as you walked out through that door

I knew what that moment was for
