The Last 3 Years

my feet meet city streets
and the wind can sting my cheeks
all it wants
i have every intention of spending
my christmas money
all in one nite if that’s what it takes
to start off a year with no mistakes
with no mistakes
if i could relive
the last three years
i would have spent more time
kissing all the places i’ve missed
i’ve missed…
and doubling up on those places i’ve already kissed
and doubling up on the places i’ve already…
tonite i walked right next to you
just like the way that we used to but my hands
never left my pockets
we started with dinner
and talked until our mouths went dry
it’s been months
since i’ve seen you like this
and even longer since
our last kiss
but tonite
it’s not about that
it’s about you and me and the city streets
so we chart our course
to the health food store
an attempt
to see you more
i follow you up and down the aisles
hoping you’ll turn to me with a smile
and greet my lips
with a goodnite kiss
if i could relive
the last three years
i would have spent more time
kissing all the places i’ve missed
i’ve missed…
and doubling up on those places i’ve already kissed
and doubling up on the places i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i’ve already kissed
i stare at you
without you knowing
but deep inside
i hope it’s showing
