Slow down we`ve got time left to be lazy
All the kids are bloom from babies into flowers in our eyes
We`ve got fifty good years
left to spend out in the garden
I don`t care to beg your pardon
we should live until we die
We were barely eighteen
when we crossed collective hearts
It was cold but it got warm
when you barely crossed my eye
And you turned put out your hand
and you asked me to danc
I knew nothing of romance
but it was love at second sight
I swear when I grow up
I won`t just buy you a rose
I will buy the flower shop
and you will never be lonely
For even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
I will not leave I will not leave `til it`s on time
So just take my hand you know
that I will never leave your side
It was the winter of `86 all
the fields had frozen over
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
And now he`s turned into a man
though he thinks just like his mother
He believes we`re all just lover
he sees hope in everyone
And even though she moved away
we always get calls from our daughter
She has eyes just like her father`s
they are blue when skies are gray
And just like him she never stops
never takes the day for granted
Works for everything that`s handed
to her never once complained
You think that I nearly lost you when
the doctors tried to take you away
But like the night you took my hand
beside the fire thirty years ago
`Til this day you swore you`d be here
`til we decide that it`s our time
But it`s not time you never quit in all your life
So just take my hand and know
that I will never leave your side
You`re the love of my life you know
that I will never leave your side
You come home from work
and you kiss me on the eye
You curse the dogs you say that
I should never feed them what is ours
So we move out to the garden
look at everything we`ve grown
And the kids are coming home so
I`ll set the table you can make the fire
