🎵 TWO LITTLE BOYS — Ian Brook. - Ian Brook Music®. G-rated.

A lifetime of friendship, told through one simple promise: “There’s room on my horse for two.”

Two little boys begin with nothing more than wooden horses and childhood imagination. Years later, war has changed everything — but when one friend needs help, the promise they made as children still remains.

“Two Little Boys” is a touching story about friendship, loyalty, courage and the extraordinary bond between two people who never forget where they came from.

From childhood dreams to life's greatest test, some friendships last a lifetime.

❤️ True friends never ride alone.

(Lyrics for, Two Little Boys)

Two little boys, had two little toys
Each had a wooden horse
Happily they played, each summer's day
Warriors both of course
One little chap, then had a mishap
Broke off his horse's head
Wept for his toy then cried with joy
As his young playmate, said

Did you think I would leave you crying
When there's room on my horse for two
Climb up here Jack, and don't be crying
I can go just as fast with two
When we grow up, we'll both be soldiers
And our horses will not be toys
And I wonder if we'll remember
When we were two little boys

Long years had passed, war came so fast
Bravely they marched away
Cannon roared loud, and in the mad crowd
Wounded and dying lay
Up goes a shout, a horse dashes out
Out from the ranks so blue
Gallops away to where Joe lay
Then came a voice he knew
Did you think I would leave you dying
When there's room on my horse for two
Climb up here Joe, we'll soon be flying
I can go just as fast with two
Did you say Joe I'm all a-tremble
Perhaps it's the battle's noise
But I think it's that I remember
When we were two little boys

Do you think I would leave you dying
There's room on my horse for two
Climb up here Joe, we'll soon be flying
Back to the ranks so blue
Can you feel Joe, I'm all a tremble
Perhaps it's the battle's noise
But I think it's that I remember
When we were two little boys
