Let’s Grow Old Together

Shesaid, “Darling, I’ve something to say.

Comesit next to me.”

Isat down with an anxious thought

Wonderingwhat this could be.

Expectationscame flooding in

Witha feeling akin to dread.

Butamazement soon took over

Atthe words that she said.

 

“Let’sgrow old together.

Let’stake a vow.

Letme hold your hand and walk by your side

Andshow them all how

Webelong to another world

Madefor lovers and friends

Wherethe fires continue to grow

Andlove never ends.”

 

Icouldn’t help but feel relieved

Anda little surprised.

So,I took her hand in mine

Andlooked into her eyes.

Isaid, “Baby, don’t you know?

That’sjust what I intend to do.

Gonnaspend my lifetime making

Sweetlove to you.”

Andshow them all how

Webelong to another world

Madefor lovers and friends

Wherethe fires continue to grow
