lyrics

Two eggs over easy
Coffee refills free
Hadn't seen his face before
Nor had he seen me

Chatter in the background
Silent where we sat
Pair of wayward strangers
Sitting back to back

How close have you come to what you're chasin'
Which will win today you or what you're facin'
Should I hunt him down or does he complete me
Dancing with the devil over easy

Ketchup off my table
Empty as the night
A voice came from behind me
You can borrow mine

Bright red from the bottle
On my china plate
Counting down the minutes
'Til we both walk away

How close have you come to what you're chasin'
Which will win today you or what you're facin'
Am I supposed to win or does he complete me
Dancin' with the devil over easy

Never looked right at him
He didn't look at me
Two men simply acting
On what they believe

Maybe I'll yet catch him
Another sunny day
This morning we had breakfast
Before he slipped away
