There's a notebook on the table
you can take it to the store
so you won't forget the groceries anymore.
There's a rifle in the cabinet that I used to fight a war
but to this day, I don't know what I was fighting for
I'm fighting for.
...
There's a blanket on the sofa that I used to keep you warm
when I find you fast asleep at half past four.
There's a record we keep turning that reminds us of our youth
but there's still nothing as beautiful as you.
Will you show me love as we get older?
And I'm falling at your feet
after 30 years of service
and one to fit our need.
Show me love as we grow colder
let our love provide the heat
that our older bones are missing
but our hearts will never meet.
