Sometimes I yearn
to return to the time
of young and foolish
without a dime.

Those were the days
of just you and me,
living on love,
and loving was free.

No obligations,
or expectations,
cluttering our lives
with complications.

Long ago, far away,
simple memories,
filling me with nostalgia,
and wistful reveries.

I miss the way we used to be,
and swear this is the truth,
I'm homesick for the you and me
of our sweet and innocent youth.
