Will you love me when we go silver
When our ears and noses get bigger
When Arthritis starts to nag
And our best parts start to sag
Will you love me in reading glasses
Kiss my neck and still make passes
And our grandchildren we'll scandalize
By holding hands and making eyes
There is no real way of knowin'
But if things keep goin' the way they're goin'
I will promise you again
I will be with you and we'll be the best of friends
Will you love me if I babble
Let me win sometimes at scrabble
Will you help me bare the load
And be somebody I'm still proud to know
There is no real way of knowin'
But if things keep goin' the way they're goin'
I will promise you again
I will be with you and we'll be the best of friends
Will I still be what you need
When I drive below posted speed
Lay down like spoons in quiet wonder
And love me years and days without number
Will you love me when life hurts
Wake me up if I fall asleep in church
Sit beside me when evening comes
And count our blessing one by one?
Will you love me when we go silver
