Reed got on the train and sat next to a very pretty girl
She could be a model, he thought to himself
Indeed she was
The chatting went swimmingly
Then they each went their separate ways
Reed could've kicked himself for not being brave
For not getting her name and number
Oh, what a fool or a knave
As for Sarah, she didn’t think much about it
Other than that he was handsome and cool
Two years later on an app called Hinge
There was a match, a new way to begin
Reed told her, “I’m almost positive I think we’ve met“
They did connect, a mutual get
Palm Springs and Costa Rica then ensued
They got married by train tracks
Expect a brood

I’m swimming in a sea of sorrow
This journey better end
I’m wrapped like a mummy
This emotion is no friend

It did not work with me and her
So I’ve gone away
Not sure where I’m traveling to
Still, I’m on my way

Was it fate or circumstance or both?
I’ll never know
She will not leave my thoughts
I can’t give her the heave-**

Still, I wouldn’t trade our love
Now so distant and far
I was happy as I’ve ever been
We shone bright as a star

I will live to smile again
And with someone new
But I’ll never forget my dear friend
I’ll change the color of my life from blue

The point of human life is love
It all comes down to this
Love, sweet love
Bliss, true bliss

Rambling down the road
One long good time
Nuzzling and cuddling
We’re gonna be fine

It’s easy if you try
Hard to say no
When it’s there
It resonates
The only way to go

The parties and galas are over
Now it’s just you and me
Hunkering in our hideout
Luxuriating in the sea breeze
Yes we had a good time
We’ve got friends galore
I sure like to be with you
For all your kisses and more

I’m very encouraged
Happy we are this way
After all the festivities
It’s time for us to play
You’re my best friend and I am yours
How lucky you and me
We got it together
How it’s gotta be

I know you’re dancing alone in your underwear
Me too
Not gonna show it
Turning off Zoom
Yep, hunkered down
In my aerie hideaway
Making calls to my friends
How are you doing today?
Glad to be here
Can you believe these days?
So we dance
We sing
We contemplate
Taking an enforced break
But not from life
Nor reality
We dance alone
In our underwear
Quarantined but still free

Jamie loved Jimmy
He was just what she needed
Someone to love her
He never complained
Jamie was true
No fooling around
But she had a past
Someone in the next town
Many years before Jim
She fell for Tommy
A real her and him
But Tommy got drafted
They drifted away
When he returned
There was Jim in the way
Oftentimes each night and day
Jamie thinks about Tommy
Those happy days
She loves her Jimmy
Her Tommy too
That’s just the way it is
Nothing can she do

The story of my life
Is the story of us
This is our truth
There is so much
So much we’ve endured
So much we have done
So good it has been
So much more to come

The story of my life
Is the story of love
Magnificent
Irrevocable
Yes, the story of
Two who found the secret
The magic that is there
When two truly embrace
When you really care
