|
woke up with fingers crossed |
|
in a boy's bed with your pants off |
|
after polite declines of coffee & toast |
|
walked home itching in last night's clothes |
|
past the Phone Booth & the Beauty Bar |
|
the broken windows of your neighbors' cars |
|
through the backdoor to a message from Sis |
|
asking who was your New Year's kiss |
|
took the afternoon to piece it all |
|
plus a half a dozen phone calls |
|
crashed a party with Larissa & Chris |
|
in pursuit of a New Year's kiss |
|
not the way that you'd imagined it |
|
on a balcony with champagne lips |
|
but in a pantry against the pancake mix |
|
you had your New Year's kiss |
