The third wire is the wire for the "always on" running lights. I've been hunting for LED 3-wire lights for quite some time, nobody seems interested in making them. As long as you have that wire end tied off somewhere that it can't come in contact with a ground, you'll be fine. Tape up the end, tie it back securely, and run with two-wire lights.
-Kurt PS: There IS a way to make two-wire lights function as three-wire lights, but it involves splicing power diodes into your lines, which takes a bit of doing and some careful component selection and in most cases isn't really worth it, in my opinion.
