I stopped by an old candy store the other day The same one my parents took me to when I was a kid Old man Joe still recognized me as the lad who bailed his hay We chatted for a little and then he asked for some help unloading a skid
His daughter Tracy of whom I went to school with was already in the back there She was complaining about how her dad should get new candy to fill all the empty beams I stayed for another hour or so, we cached up as old friends do, she told me her dreams of being the mayor of our little town. Before I left her Dad asked us what kind of new candy he should get. Without hesitation we both grinned and shouted Jellybeans.
Something that day must have created a spark, because ever since then I held her close to my heart A few years later, we had our wedding at the old store, we even ran away after on a horse. Who could of known a place like this, could leave such a big mark Perhaps the best part was being asked what he had for dessert, we both smiled said Jellybeans of course.
Today she lives her dreams as mayor, while I run Grandpa Joe's candy store. We expanded a little and even took up a space for ice cream We have one on the way and another who just turned four And although Tracy can't help too much anymore, I have help from our little one, of whom we call Jellybean
