There's a bakery at the end of this dead-end street It has lots of pastries with nothing to eat I'm hungry so I hold your hand from across the miles In your distant touch I feel a peace and start to smile (a missing piece, more missed than missing now) Let’s turn this dead-end to a through-street somehow Even pouring concrete is romantic I’ve found when done together with you…
Decades passed, in review: I was happy on that journey, now sorry it’s through. I miss being best friends with you.
