Debs Reunited

Early years spent in Manchester11
I first knew her when I was7
When we were 8 she wrote me a letter
I'd been in hospital, she hoped I was better

Moved on to the same high school
Never hung out together but I knew she was cool
At 16 our paths went separate ways
Good times, bad times, happy and sad days

Decades passsed and I found that letter
Nearly forty years since I first met her
To trace school friends I asked the Evening News
They printed my e-mail, nothing to lose

Mother Malone read my email and called her offspring
An e-mail arrived from the girl who can sing
Re-united again after such a long while
Debs is her name with the winning smile
