With nothing much else to do, We would grab a couple of purple prickly pear margaritas And I remember how delicious they were And how the bartender didn't hold back Yes, they were strong. And I would giggle, I would act ditzy. Just because it was fun, and it got your attention. You would roll your eyes at me sometimes But not really in a mean way. And we would grab some coney dogs, devour them like they were nothing. Then we would fight about something. We would drive all the way to the city Stroll through the casinos aimlessly, Because we were financially irresponsible, But not that financially irresponsible. Afterwards, you would buy me a delicious ice cream. Then you would tell me all the places you wanted to take me, and all the events you wanted me to experience. We really did give it our all. But life is cruel, and our best wasn't good enough.
