One, Two, Three O’Leary

One, two, three O'Leary
Games I played with Mary
Way back in the wild wood of our careless childhood
Then we both discovered how friends turn to lovers
Now the memory stays
Of one, two, three O'Leary days

Magic is when she was mine
I'd run away too fast
Just like the sands of time
Where's the boy I used to know?
And where's that little girl who said, 'I love you so'?
Where did she go?

One, two, three O'Leary
Goodbye, my sweet Mary
I will always love you
Though we've gone our different ways
No more one, two, three O'Leary days

I will always love you
Though we've gone our different ways
No more one, two, three O'Leary days
