Mixed Drinks

You live in a brownstone and I grew up in the street
You work in a corner office and I struggle to make ends meet

We met one night under the stars
Dancing the night away, laughing and drinking at the bar

We went to the beach and caught a movie or two
Sometimes we stayed at home and even growled at the tigers in the zoo

Each place we made into a memory, each place was frozen in time
Each place had some chicanery, especially after those bottles of wine

Bedroom exercises that lasted until dawn
The sweet smell of success sharing cigarettes and coffee on the front lawn
