Grow Old

Tell me that you love me
Say "We'll always work it out"
I know it's kinda scary, but it's only temporary doubt
I've done a lot of stupid things
But promise that you're gonna stay long enough to grow old with me

We're gonna see the good times, love each other through the bad
It's gonna hurt like hell when we lose our moms and dads
So let my shoulder hold your tears
Walk beside me through the years
Baby let's see, where this love could lead

Let's hold hands on your favorite beach
Fix up a house that we found in the city limits
Tangled up in a satin sheet
And get a little loud when we've had too much to drink

And learn to love from a church pew
Laugh about all the times we counted pennies
Buy some land with a good view to start a family
Baby grow old with me

It's gonna take a little time, we'll have to work at it everyday
We're gonna lose a lot of sleep and learn to eat out of a microwave
You know we'll probably never have it all
But that's part of building up the walls
Strong enough to stand up through the rain

We'll make some love on your favorite beach
Add to the house that we found in the city limits
Talk our babies through the bad dreams
When they get a little older, we'll tell them not to drink

Book a church when she finds a groom
Laugh about all the times they'll count the pennies
Give 'em land with a good view
To start a family

And baby you know we might take a turn down a bad road
Maybe go where the wind blows, baby
But end up right where we were meant to be, yeah

Back and forth on a porch swing
Hard not to smile, thinking how it don't get much better
Our babies, babies turning 18
What a family, hmm

Baby grow old with me
Baby grow old with me
Baby grow old with me, yeah
Tell me that you love me
Say "We'll always work it out"
