At this old bar in Wichita
With sawdust on the floor
I sit and nurse a Lone Star
Keep one eye on the door

This place is where we used to meet
It’s where you broke my heart
You told me you were leaving
You needed a new start

It’s been twenty years since I’ve seen you
And then you call from out the blue
Ask if we might meet tonight
Wonder if it would be alright
To see me where the memories are
At this old bar in Wichita

And then, there you are
My god you’re looking great
All those years just melt away
We’re back on our first date

It’s been twenty years since I’ve seen you
And then you call from out the blue
Ask if we might meet tonight
Wonder if it would be alright
To see me where the memories are
At this old bar in Wichita
