In Milwaukee
I met a mountaineer
He told me how he'd taken
an old lady from there
To one of those famous
mountaintops
Where her husband once
had perished and dropped
Being a gymnast
she was in very good shape
But once in a while they
had to stop for a break
To warm their hands
on a cup of java
As he helped her put
on her balaclava
It'd been forty-two years
he had heard
But the man's body was
quite well preserved
From the permanent cold he was
Forever young forever beautiful
Forever young forever beautiful
Forever young
On the way down
her cheeks were redder
Redder than the reddest apple
They set up their tent at base camp
Crawled into their sleeping bags
And she lit a candle
She said
You should have seen
him in his summer clothes
The short pants
that gently exposed
His calves that spoke
of hidden treasures
Golden ratios unknown pleasures
She told him how their
bodies had together bloomed
The first time they did it
in her student room
How she had got on top of him
So she could see everything
Reflecting the light off the moon
Forever young forever beautiful
Forever young forever beautiful
Forever young
