They say that bad things happen in three
I guess that means you and me
Two times to make sure we get our fill
And a third despite our best intentions
If youth is wasted on the young
Then you and I have just begun
Poetry looking for clarity
Or clarity looking for poetry
Despite our better judgement
You can't stop the morning rain
And bathing everything in a grey light
They say that bad things happen in three
I guess that means you and me
