I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad, Carry you…
“I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad, Carry you around when your arthritis is bad, All I wanna do is grow old with you. I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches, Build you a fire if the furnace breaks, it could be so nice, growing old with you. I'll miss you, Kiss you, Give you my coat when you are cold . Need you, Feed you, Even let ya hold the remote control:) So let me do the dishes in our kitchen sink, Put you to bed if you've had too much to drink, I could be the man who grows old with you. I wanna grow old with you.”
