Tanya Tucker - Between The Two Of Them lyrics

(Mickey Cates) They married back in forty-two They were young and love was new And every day that 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 fifties came and the sixties went A mortgage note replaced the rent And they made the most of each day spent Between the two of them The children all turned out just fine He retired in sixty-nine 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 Oh I miss them both so much His crooked smile her gentle touch And the pleasure of just growing up Between the two of them
