Joe & Cath
David Brown
Here we are in every photograph
The golden couple; Joe and Cath
We were an item, a brand, a team
In a halo of projected dreams
Friends believed in us, they had a faith
If we were faithful everyone was safe
So when it happened, it was like a bomb
The curser hovers on the trash icon
A pointed finger and a single click
There goes the whole relationship
4 years, 3 months, 2 weeks and a day
I pressed return and you went away
At the restaurant, the pool, the bar
The perfect profile repertoire
Two people smiling out from every pose
Now disappear in regimented rows
But all the good times we seemed to have
Never quite made it to the lab’
But digi’ photos you can never erase
And we’re still in love somewhere
Out there in cyber space |
