Slow down,
F5         Eb5                F5   
we've got time left to be lazy
        Bb5        Bb5         G5 F5     Eb5                F5
All the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
          Bb5    Bb5  G5    F5      Eb5                F5
We've got fifty good years left to spend out in the garden
         Eb5              D5
I don't care to beg your pardon,
           C5    F5
We should live
           Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5 Eb5 F5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5
until we die.


        Bb5         Bb5            G5                   D5 Eb5 F5
We were barely eighteen when we'd crossed collective hearts.
        Eb5               D5            C5                 F5
It was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
             Bb5           Bb5    G5
and then you turned, put out your hand,
   F5   Eb5            F5
and you asked me to dance.
        Eb5          D5                 C5             F5


I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.


  Eb5                F5                           Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5
I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
       Eb5              F5                             Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5
I will buy the flower shop, and you will never be lonely.
Eb5                     F5
Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
             Bb5               Bb5            G5
I will not leave, I will not leave 'till it's our time.
         Eb5                         F5                        Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5 Eb5 F5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5
So just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.

           Bb5         Bb5            G5                D5 Eb5 F5
It was the winter of '86, and all the fields had frozen over.
        Eb5        D5        C5           F5
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
             Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5
and now he's turning to a man,
            Eb5                    F5
although he thinks just like his mother,
      Eb5                   D5              C5          F5

he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.


         Bb5          Bb5  G5
And even though she moved away,
    F5         Eb5              F5
we always get calls from our daughter.
        Eb5                 D5
She has eyes just like her father's
         C5                  F5
they are blue when skies are grey
              Bb5        Bb5   G5   F5
And just like him , she never stops,
       Eb5                F5
Never takes the day for granted,
Eb5                           D5
works for everything that's handed to her,
C5             F5
Never once complains.


Eb5                 F5      Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5
You think that I nearly lost you
          Eb5               F5         Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5
When the doctors tried to take you away.
              Eb5               F5                Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5
But like the night you took my hand beside the fire
        Eb5       F5
thirty years ago 
       Bb5
to this day
Eb5                               F5     
You swore you'd be here 'til we decide that it's our time
               Bb5                 Bb5           G5
Well it's not time, you've never quit in all your life.
         Eb5                         F5                      Bb5 Bb5 G5
So just take my hand, you know that I'll never leave your side.
            Eb5                            F5                      Bb5 Bb5 G5 F5 Eb5 F5 Bb5 Bb5 Bb5
You're the love of my life, you know that I'll never leave your side.

          Bb5        Bb5 G5 F5
You come home from work
         Eb5             F5
and you kiss me on the eye
              Eb5                D5              C5                F5
You curse the dog you say that I should never feed them what is ours
           Bb5      Bb5    G5    F5
and so we move all to the garden
        Eb5                F5
look at everything we've owned
        Eb5              D5
now the kids are coming home
   C5              D5 Eb5 F5
so I set the table
                  Bb5
You can make the fire.
