Two

Like ice cream and rainbows and shooting stars
To have one is special
To fill up my heart
But if there was some way
I could have two
Would I have the room in my heart for you
It’s strange how you’re such a mystery
But a day when the other is true
Will come and I’ll have to remember
What life was like before you
And so I’m feeling conflicted
For time is a curious thing
This most precious stage is ending
Though I know the joy you will bring
Like ice cream and rainbows and shooting stars
To have one is special
To fill up my heart
But if there was some way
I could have two
Would I have the room in my heart for you
But my tender heart is aching
For my baby, the one who came first
Who made me a mother from nothing
I’m scared that these changes might hurt
But I know I’m giving her something
That might feel like taking away
But you’ll have each other forever
And I, too, am here to stay
And a second rainbow only adds to the first
Not certainly better
Maybe reversed
For each star is special
Every one
So double the ice cream
Means double the fun
Like ice cream and rainbows and shooting stars
To have one is special
To fill up my heart
But if there was some way
I could have two
I’ll always have room in my heart for both of you
