The 1:49 Post

I don’t wanna scare you. No. I would surely give you the time of day anytime. You keep telling me all you need is love… To be listened to closely. To be held in my arms all night. Well I’ll tell ya something… If there’s anything worth a smile in this world, it’s you. I’ll give you a chance again. I’ll give you a pepperoni pizza carafe of burgandy moment if you need it. We’ll sit at the red and white checked candlelight and talk in whispers. We’ll ride the trolley up the hill and I’ll hang off the side with arm outstretched waving a hat at the crowd–showtunes blaring in our ears. Or maybe Motown. Something with blaring horns. Some music of enthusiastic optimism and a more hopeful blues riff. I wanna hear that music of youth, rebirth, the frontier spirit. Yes. I’ll show you a good time if you’ll let me in that heart of yours.
