He left his life behind, to roam the country trying to forget,
I worked in the naffi shop, with a women about the same age as my Mum,
She had a boyfriend many years before,but stopped , as she was a few years older than him,
He was a young man in the RAF,he had been posted she never saw him again,
In 1963 into the shop walked a RAF Officer,no not the boyfriend but a friend of his,
They had a long chat,how she had hurt his friend,took a long time to get over her,But in time had married and had a family,
She was due a holiday went home to her sisters in Liverpool,
A letter arrived for the manager ,sent by her sister along with a doctor note,Her sister had a breakdown ,wouldn't be coming back,
I really believed it had something to do with the meeting in the shop ,
Thinking of what her life could have been,it was very sad,
that a true story
