Five Years

I think I saw you in an ice-cream parlor
drinking milk shakes cold and long
smiling and waving and looking so fine
don’t think you knew you were in this song

And it was cold and it rained so I felt like an actor
and I thought of Ma and I wanted to get back there
Your face, your race, the way that you talk

I kiss you
you’re beautiful
I want you to walk
