Shoulder to Shoulder - Little Joy

Shoulder to shoulder

Amused, but not advanced

He, she, you, me

It’s all just circumstance

Eager, hopeful

Content to play the friend

Timid advances

With mutual regret

She can’t always be wrong

He can’t always be right

Not a matter of choice

Just a matter of time

Till they know where they stand

Once they reach the end

Awkward choices

With smiles from ear to ear

A fated union

That won’t survive the year

Timeless series

Of blameless accidents

Oh the stubborn cycle

Of inherited mistakes

She can’t always be wrong

He can’t always be right

Not a matter of choice

Just a matter of time

Till they know where they stand

Once they reach the end

I’ll pay mind where I place my trust

When the desert ends

I’ll ask the dust

I’ll pay mind where I place my trust

When the desert ends

I’ll ask the dust
