While much of the world is sheltering in place, one couple has found themselves in a "love quarantine". This is their story.

Millions, however, are being negatively impacted by the coronavirus crisis. If you are able, please support whatever local businesses are open, and consider a gift to an organization on this list: nytimes.com/article/coronavirus-how-to-help-donations-charities.html

We can do this, world!

lyrics

When you were mine, life was so fine
Our love felt so right
But all that it takes is one mistake
To turn out the sweet sweet light

(I’m so sad)
You won’t return my calls
(I’m so sad)
All I’ve got are these four cold walls in this…

(Lockdown!)
In love quarantine
(Lockdown!)
You’re gone, neither heard from nor seen
(Lockdown!)
Where, oh, where have you been?

(Lockdown!)
I’ve been erased
(Lockdown!)
I’m lonely, stranded in space
(Lockdown!)
Why can’t we meet face to face? In the same place…

I know I was wrong, but it’s been too long,
Can’t you forgive in this instance?
You cried and frowned, and then locked it down
I can’t stand the social distance

(I'm so sad)
All I have are the memories
(I'm so sad)
And an old block of cheese in this…

(Lockdown!)
I just can’t understand
(Lockdown!)
I’m a desperate shell of a man
(Lockdown!)
I long for the touch of your hand

(Lockdown!)
I know nothing I say
(Lockdown!)
Can ease the pain or take it away
(Lockdown!)
So your last words I just replay...play and replay…

[Spoken word section]

(I'm so sad)
Stuck in my prison cell
(I'm so sad)
It’s like a living hell in this...

(Lockdown!)
In love quarantine
(Lockdown!)
You’re gone, neither heard from nor seen
(Lockdown!)
Where, oh, where have you been?

(Lockdown!)
Why can’t it end?
(Lockdown!)
I love you and I can’t pretend
(Lockdown!)
Yeah, I could sure use a friend…to love me again!
