THREE THEN THERE WAS TWO
You remember hanging with me and tony
You were so scared you cried out for mommy
We snuck out at the brisk of dawn
And we got grounded for life
When our parents found out we were gone
Upon a treasure hunt at miller cave and beyond
The only thing we caught was poison ivy
It was contagious you gave it to me
The three of us stuck out like a sore thumb
When you’re young everything we done was dumb
But after all we never hurt anyone
Me and tony both had a crush on you
And I still can’t believe some of the things we used to do
You picked tony I knew I never had a chance with you
Tony had the look that all the girls liked
He broke a different ones heart every night
I picked up the pieces as they fall
You were the hardest piece of them all
I know you loved him through it all
But Tony was Tony and it never came up again
He broke her heart, and let me down
And should have never let this begin
He knew I loved her that’s why he let her go
But she didn’t love me that he didn’t know
I never told her that’s why he moved on
But in reality he was her one and only
She moved away because her dad got a job
But I know it was because she had a crazy uncle named BOB
Who got to friendly with the younger kids?
I seen her a couple years later again
When the painful day Tony’s life came to an end
So I came clean so she can forgive, and lay him to rest
30 years later I was contacted by her on face book
She doesn’t look like she aged a day
And we met at his tombstone
And lowered our heads and prayed
Now she’s a grandmother with a swing on the porch
Watching the children play passing the torch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If you were the third then you would have been left too
