Tell me we will stay in love forever
Those are only words
Til we're old and gray together, baby
Those are only words

You're so pretty, we're so young
Our wings still fly, our legs still run
Yes all seems so green and new
You might want me, I might want you

Tell me we will stay in love forever
But those are only words
'Till we're old and gray together, baby
Those are only words
'Till I know you and you know me
Forever is absurd
If we don't learn to show each other, baby
Love is just a word

You wouldn't leave me if you could
But things won't always be this good
There will be times that test us, baby
It won't come true unless you say it

Tell me we will stay in love forever
But those are only words
'Till we're old and gray together, baby
Those are only words
'Till I know you and you know me
Forever is absurd
If we don't learn to show each other, baby
Love is just a word

Oh, is it gonna last
Oh, when the brown leaves fall on our green grass

Tell me we will stay in love forever
But those are only words
'Till we're old and gray together, baby
Those are only words
'Till I know you and you know me
Forever is absurd
If we don't learn to show each other, baby
Love is just a word
