Old Acquaintance
I hope to see you in the new year
if my town isn’t on lockdown
and your city lifts its restrictions
you know it’s been a mighty long time
You can’t really share a pint over zoom,
now can you?
And you certainly can’t pass it on the left-hand side
no matter how good the wi-fi is
I know this is the year that all of our dreams will come true
I know this is the year that all of our dreams will come true
I’ve had my fill of tea and sympathy
I need to get back into the wild
and find another world that shimmers
because this past year has lost its shine
