Our bodies and our worldy goods, our hopes and our Corvair.

Magically our twoness blossomed into four;
Sleepless nights and tiny lives wondering what’s in store.

Sprinkle in a mortgage, and add a station wagon;
Scouting; braces, school plays and a costume for a dragon!

Charge accounts; and pillow fights; a gerbil and two dogs;
PTA and ballet lessons; neighbors and in-laws!

From a simple bonding born of admiration;
We became as complex as a world class corporation!

Life insurance; profit margins; school tuition plans;
Driving lessons; graduation; both have wedding plans!

I wondered walking down the aisle to give them to another;
Why my wife was crying, like every new bride’s mother;

Does she cry for knowing what our daughter’s headed to?
Or are her tears because she knows

it's just, once more, we two?

At first we were young lovers who only had to share;
Our bodies and our worldy goods, our hopes and our Corvair.

Magically our twoness blossomed into four;
Sleepless nights and tiny lives wondering what’s in store.

Sprinkle in a mortgage, and add a station wagon;
Scouting; braces, school plays and a costume for a dragon!

Charge accounts; and pillow fights; a gerbil and two dogs;
PTA and ballet lessons; neighbors and in-laws!

From a simple bonding born of admiration;
We became as complex as a world class corporation!

Life insurance; profit margins; school tuition plans;
Driving lessons; graduation; both have wedding plans!

I wondered walking down the aisle to give them to another;
Why my wife was crying, like every new bride’s mother;

Does she cry for knowing what our daughter’s headed to?
Or are her tears because she knows

it's just, once more, we two?
