Twin Falls

[Verse 1]

Christmas, Twin Falls, Idaho

Is her oldest memory

She was only two

It's the first time she felt blue

Cafeteria, Harrison

Elementary

Beneath a parachute

I saw her without shoes

7 up, I touched her thumb

And she knew it was me

Although she couldn't see

Unless, of course, she peeked

[Verse 2]

My mom's good, she got me out of

Twin Falls, Idaho

Before I got too old

You know how that goes

That's where she still was the summer

She turned 17

In 1983

Three weeks after me

Last I heard was she had twins

Or maybe it was three

Though I've never seen

(Except for in my dreams/

But that don't bother me)
