I walked into a shop the other day
and from behind I thought I saw my mum
She had the same build, silver grey hair rolled up in a bun
That always sits on top of her head...she even talked loud
Like my mum does...kinda freaked me out...really it did
Then not long after that....I was sitting in our local pub
Just enjoying a few beers after work
When I thought I heard a man laugh that sounded like my dad
I looked around and there he was tall like my dad white hair like my dad
pot belly like my dad, walked like my dad...but when he turned
And I saw his face.....I sighed with relief thinking...damn I'm not going mad
Doesn't that just get to you, when you see flash's from the past
