“All That's Left That's Right”

"All That's Left That's Right”
Copyright by Frank A DeCenso, Jr.

[Vs1]
In the closet I found some torn blue jeans,
That were the favorite pair you wore;
Johnny found the train set you and he built,
A wintertime or two before…
The Christmas tree’s up and still blinks bright,
But some bulbs just burned out;
Your parents didn't send a card this year -
They may have forgot us by now...

CHORUS
There’s not much here but two lonely hearts,
You forgot when you left that night;
If you ever feel you’re missing some parts,
Look here - we're all that's left that's right.

[Vs2]
The car’s a little shaky, the tailpipe’s loose,
They say it’s on its last mile;
I remember how you’d fix it on rainy weekends,
Then kiss me with a greasy smile…
There’s a little bit of me that looks outside,
To see if you’ve come home;
All I can see is your son's tree house –
He doesn't like it all alone...

CHORUS
There’s not much here but two lonely hearts,
You forgot when you left that night;
If you ever feel you’re missing some parts,
Look here - we're all that's left that's right.

[BRIDGE]
The front door key lies under the Welcome mat,
If you ever come back, I hope you remember that –
'Cause its where you put it at…

CHORUS
There’s not much here but two lonely hearts,
You forgot when you left that night;
If you ever feel you’re missing some parts,
Look here - we're all that's left that's right.
