Tin Can Longings (Free verse) by phoenixxx
Tin can longings
Its a quarter past two
When I see you across our alley
In your red and yellow room
So I pick up that old tin can
Where we used to rendezvous
And share my secret longings
On our telephone with you
Sure, one hundred years have past
Since we made that alley home
And everything has changed
On those streets we used to roam
And yeah, a decade's come and gone
And my childhood's left alone
And, oh a hundred years ago
If yesterday we'd known
We talked tonight on the tin can phone
Shared our world beneath the stars
And memories have come and gone
To Jupiter, to Mars
And yeah, our childhood is gone
And we're wishing from afar
But I am always with you now
No matter where you are.
