“Operator, number please.
It’s been so many years.
Will he remember my old voice
while I fight the tears?
Hello, hello there, is this Tommy?
This is Betsy Frost
and I am calling long distance
Don’t worry about the cost.
It’s been twenty years or more now.
Won’t you please recall
and meet me out for coffee?
We can talk about it all.
Oh, those were days of roses,
poetry and prose
And all I had was you,
all you had was me.
There was no tomorrow.
We packed away our sorrows
and we saved them for a rainy day.
And I feel so much older now.
Well, you’re much older, too.
How’s your wife, and how’s your kids?
You know, I got married, too.
Lucky that I found someone
who helped me feel secure
Oh, we were all so young and foolish
Now we are mature.
Oh, those were days of roses,
poetry and proses
All I had was you,
all you had was me.
Whoa, there was no tomorrow.
We just packed away our sorrows
Oh, we saved them for a rainy day.
And I was always so impulsive.
Guess that I still am.
But all that really mattered then
was I had me a man.
Guess that our being together’s
never meant to be.
Oh, but Tommy, Tommy,
I love you, don’t you see?
Oh, those were days of roses,
poetry and proses.
All I had was you,
all you had was me.
Oh, there was no tomorrow.
Didn’t we packed away our sorrows
and saved them for a rainy day?.
And I remember quiet evenings
trembling close to you.”
