Upon a subway platform, here I stand,
This pivot between Williamsburg and Queens,
Here, on this spot where you and I began,
From whence I first I sought out your company.
One winter evening when I journeyed far,
And crossed the burroughs in search of your soul
I only then suspected who you are,
And knew not of the love we would unfold.
And now years passed, we both live far from here,
Together in the place we share our life.
As I remember back across the years,
That young man's travel to his future wife,
I wonder if he could have then conceived,
One day he'd miss you here, so desperately
