Can you remember the first time we kissed
No, I can't dear, but if you say so, it was bliss
Can you remember our first meal together -
Was it a moonlit night? No - I recall rainy weather

'Can you remember your funny little car?'
'Yes it broke down (in our road) we didn't get far
The door closed, key jammed, climbed through the roof
We had to go out and home on the hoof.'
'Remember our famous friend?'
'Do you mean Philip Klein?
'I Praised their floor cushions, instead of sofas, didn't realise they were poor
When we left they gave a V sign - never saw them any more.'
'You had a lovely ginger friend. Slim and so well dressed
What became of her? Did she marry?' "No. She died.
Yes. Very pretty. But silent. And depressed.
Long aftewards I read that she'd committed suicide.'\
'While it's nice to think we had fun when we were young
I lost all my teeth at seven, I was a pimpy teen
We worried about our past and what was to come
There's no point in hankering for what we could have been
'Let's have some food and drink today The past is the past
All the old times are gone, let's put them away
The good times didn't last but the bad times didn't last
I have got you here and now so let's enjoy today.'
