    OLD STREETS (Baltimore 1986)

    You were my funny honey
    Now baby can you make me laugh again
    Cause I've been so lonely, running from the rain
    I'm looking at you and you're looking at me
    Let's get together for those sweet good times, darlin'
    back on those old streets.

    It's been so long since we stood here together
    So give me that smile and say you remember
    Close your eyes, can't you feel it? So sweet and slow
    If you're wanting what I'm wanting, there's only one place we can go...

    Down to those old streets, they were our home
    We were the golden children, now see how we've grown
    Baby we could try again, if you put your hand in mine
    We could go back to those old streets
    and leave the world behind.

    Come on, old friend
    Let's such each other free
    I know you've got your battlescars and you're a prisoner just like me;
    You lost faith in heroes and I lost faith in some dreams
    But maybe we can find a way to make it right again
    Back on those old streets.

    A wondeful poem filled with nostalgia and free expression. Visions of days past are created by the writer.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
