In Our Old Age

(album: Love Is Strange - 1990)

Coming home from work today I saw our future
And old man and his wife were holding hands
They were sitting on a front porch swing like two young lovers
I waved to them as I went by then I realized
That life does not grow dimmer with the setting of the sun
The best years of our lives still are yet to come.

In our old age love will just get better
The longer we're together, we'll grow stronger everyday
Our bodies may get weaker and our hair will turn gray
But love will never fade in our age (love will never fade).

One day the kids will all be grown and they'll be leaving
And it will be like it was years ago
We'll be sitting on the front porch swing like two young lovers
'Cause today I just saw what our future holds...
