Growing Old Together (click for lyrics)

(THIS IS YOUR SONG)

Twenty-second of July '82
The world was blessed to get its hands on you
And ever since, it's been a better place by far
I feel so fortunate that I can say
Your family raised you up the very best way
And you became the lovely woman that you are

You've been breaking hearts from the very start
It was plain to see you were a work of art
There was no denying all the great things bound to be
There's this way about you, light shining down on you
Everyone just wants to be around you
I can't believe that you chose to be with me

I love you Alison
Forever you will be the one
I know when times are tough
We'll hold each other up
And this world can throw whatever
As long as you and me are growing old together

You traveled south across the borderline
To make some money in the summertime
Far away from where you lived in Dollard-des-Ormeaux
Well, I was working, had a job to do
But I just couldn't take my eyes off of you
You had me wrapped around your finger at the first hello

'Cause you got a joyful soul, must be made of gold
And a smile so brilliant it could melt any cold
That was only the beginning, then I came to find
That I love your father, adore your mother
Think of your brother as my very own brother
I got to believe our situation's of the rarest kind

I love you Alison
Forever you will be the one
I know when times are tough
We'll hold each other up
And this world can throw whatever
As long as you and me are growing old together

I promise you this
That I will give my all to you as long as we both live
When you are lost, I'll be your guiding light and
I'll keep you safe through every day and night
For you, I'll provide
Stand right by your side
No doubt in my mind

You got my back, you're always on my team
You help me live out my impossible dreams
I hope that so far, I have granted all your wishes too
You always listen to me when I sing
You keep me looking on the bright side of things
There are no words that I could say to show my gratitude

I can see the future, our kids are so cute
You're the greatest mommy and the very best teacher
We may not have a lot of money but we're rich for sure
You laugh with my father, you talk with my mother
You cared about my brother like your very own brother
You make me whole in every way and I can't ask for more

I love you Alison
Forever you will be the one
I know when times are tough
We'll hold each other up
And this world can throw whatever
As long as you and me are growing old together
