Wrinkles

We'll earn every wrinkle as we grow old Sitting by the fire to warm from the cold For every wrinkle carries a memory It part of who we are it's our history We'll pay our dues like time demands Facing fate together, holding hands Things always get a little better with time So it'll be okay if we're past our prime I'll bet we'll have a million stories to tell Reading all our letters back when mail was mail We'll talk about the world and all its change The things they call new we're gonna call strange But that's the way a marriage is meant to be With me loving you and you loving me It's easy as can be when it's love at first sight It doesn't get any better when you know it's right We'll earn every wrinkle as we grow old Sitting by the fire to warm from the cold For every wrinkle carries a memory It part of who we are it's our history
