Olivia

You and I, we've been friends for quite some time
Across the old state line is where we began

In your backyard with that big, old tree and swing
We were young and we got married under it

Olivia
Oh God, I wanna see you again
You lift me up
You give hope to this hopeless man
You are the light
The light on where all is true
You had me when you said, "I do"

So I held you and I had I known the words to say
I would have sang them to you every day until they found their worth

I never wrote you but your memory lingers on
From the edge of that little pond where I left for the glass full of poison the rocks

1, 2, 3, 4!

Years go by and you and I are both a little older
And the boy I was has now become a soldier and the front has worn him down

But there is hope that maybe I will find my center
And I'll finally get my shit together
And come running back down that old country road
