Lyrics

The Third To Know

One thing I know about this crazy old life
You let me go but still you're holdin' tight
I guess you don't want me to move on gracefully
Cos the calls come daily and with every one
Comes the question "have you found someone?"
I've got no answer these things happen magically

You'll be the third to know darlin'
When there is hope in my sights
You'll be the third to know darlin'
But I am gonna be sure this time is right

It won't be easy to be loved again
With reminders from an old girlfriend
I'm just beginning to refresh my heart and mind
So if you really meant goodbye to me
You'll cut the calling and the third degree
Just wish me well and leave our history behind

You'll be the third to know darlin'
Just take care of yourself
You'll be the third to know darlin'
Cos' when I'm able to get off of the shelf
You'll get a message from me
and it'll be real brief
I've found someone
Now I can spell relief
Time to move it on
And we can go our separate ways

You'll be the third to know darlin'
That day will come you can trust
You'll be the third to know darlin'
but first I've gotta shake off some of this rust
