give me a long tall glass of yesterday
with a fresh squeeze of what used to be
rim the glass with memory
and let me drink it down
like a sweet summer tea
throw in some ice
one cube for every year
to make it ice cold
like a favorite beer
at last garnish it
with a kiss
a toast to an old romance
cheers, i'll drink to this
