THEY MARRIED
BACK IN '32
AND THEY WERE YOUNG
AND LOVE WAS NEW
AND EVERYDAY
THE FEELING GREW
BETWEEN THE
TWO OF THEM
WHEN WORK GREW SCARCE
AND TIMES GOT BAD
THE HOPE WOULD CHASE
AWAY THE SAD
AND HOPE WAS SOMETIMES
ALL THEY HAD
BETWEEN THE TWO
OF THEM
THE 40'S CAME AND
THE 50'S WENT
AND THE MORTGAGE NOTE
REPLACED THE RENT
AND THEY MADE THE MOST
OF EACH DAY SPENT
BETWEEN THE
TWO OF THEM
THEIR CHILDREN ALL
TURNED OUT JUST FINE
SO HE RETIRED IN '69
AND LEFT WITH OH
SO LITTLE TIME
BETWEEN THE
TWO OF THEM
TODAY I BRAVED THE
GRAVEYARD RAIN
AND PLACED A ROSE
BETWEEN THEIR NAMES
NOW THAT'S THE MOST
THAT EVER CAME
BETWEEN THE
TWO OF THEM
AND OH I MISS THEM
BOTH SO MUCH
HIS CROOKED SMILE
HER GENTLE TOUCH
AND THE PLEASURE OF
JUST GROWIN' UP
BETWEEN THE
TWO OF THEM
