Honey Down the Line

[PrinceMyshkin]

for VB

I have this long-distance friend
I call up now and then
often when I’m feeling blue
and I don’t know how she does it
but she just pours honey
down the line...

Honey down the line,
honey down the line,
I swear that woman
just pours honey down the line!

She must keep
a big mother vat of it
close by the phone
and when my name comes up
on the call-display
she just unstoppers the bung
and gets ready to pour,
gets ready to pour,
gets ready to pour
that honey down the line!

I swear that woman
just pours honey down the line!

Astute though you often are, you've missed the mark this time! Wake up and smell the bittersweet fumes of a romance long since transmogrified into a very loving if much lower-keyed friendship! Sweets is very happy, thriving in her university courses and very much in love with someone else.

Shades of David Bromberg, my friend.

I like the brevity of who in this because it is not important who, just that who it is keeps coming with the honey.

I love it when you throw one of these out there.

Thank you my Prince, no one has ever written anything to me before. Such a lovely write it is too! A flowing heart song you've written, and I am so honored.

Our friendship means everything to me and that you and I laugh so freely is a blessing for us both.

No, but now I do my friend.

As it happens, those are also the initials of my (female) psychoanalyst.

Nice. With the write music it could make a lovely song.
