The Older We Get
baby we've been at this for a few years now
we sure have broke some ground
nobody thought we'd make it
but we aint broken down
baby this is like a fine wine
we just get better with time
oh
i'm lookin forward to the days your hair turns gray
and i dont remember a thing but you
when our skin is wrinkled
and we got a bunch of faded tattoos
we'll look back at pictures and smile
remembering the good ole days
but i wouldnt change a thing
cuz you'll still be wearing my ring
baby we'll just keep raisin the bar
cuz the older we get
the stronger we are
i know you look in the mirror and shake your head
sayin you want to go to the gym
as soon as you get out of bed
i just laugh
as i wrap my arms around you
and you smile back
baby you dont need all that
oh
i'm lookin forward to the days your hair turns gray
and i dont remember a thing but you
when our skin is wrinkled
and we got a bunch of faded tattoos
we'll look back at pictures and smile
remembering the good ole days
but i wouldnt change a thing
cuz you'll still be wearing my ring
baby we'll just keep raisin the bar
cuz the older we get
the stronger we are
so baby why dont you put an old record on
and we'll dance all night long
like we use to
cuz
