Holly Palmer The Three Of Us Lyrics

The Three Of Us Lyrics

"Put the girls up for adoption" 



Remember what a mess you were? 



Though he made mistakes 



I think we came out alright 



Tell me is Annaliisa coming? 



Oh Mama I could cry 



How the years flew by 



And now they're out of time 



She put a finger to her lips 



A strong arm 'round my waist 







She said, "Now lay your head here upon my shoulder 



Let the rain come down 



People only do just what they want to do 



Honey, it's not up to you" 







Ma, it's good to see you 



I know that he'd be glad you came 



Do you think they tried to get it right? 



She grabbed me by my chin 



Then looked straight into my face 







She said, "Now lay your head right here on my shoulder 



Let the rain come down 



People only do just what they want to do 



It's all that they can do 







Now lay your head here upon my shoulder 



Let the rain fall down 



People only do what they do 



It's not up to you 







Someday baby girl we're gonna sit here all together 



Just the three of us 



Somewhere close your papa will be proud 







Lay your head here on me 



And let the rain come down 



Darling, don't you see? 



They only do what they do 



Sugar, it's not up to you 







Now rest your brow right here on my shoulder 



Let those tears come down 



'Cause people only do just what they want to do 



Honey, it's not up to you 



It's not up to you"
