Dear Mary,
Sorry, no time to visit,
even for a cup of coffee or tea,
as the days pass
and we all move away,
remember the good times
when we would sit,
Maybe for the last time,
driving around,
as "Dreams" and "Linger"
dropped in '93,
repeatedly the station
chose to play
yesterday's hits with barely
a set list,
Dreary Irish vocals,
you loved their sound,
remember how cold
it was in the car,
even with the heat
on full blast, winter
arrived on time for Memphis,
closed the bar,
music lingers in my ears
as splinters
you must pull out with tweezers,
with a twist.
