LYRICS
I gave up on looking for love late in life.
I made sure that no one could see what’s inside.
I felt so much safer to just be alone
Than jump off a cliff to a deep dark unknown.
Yes, we both have had love that ended in loss,
And rivers of pain we don’t want to cross.
Then you slipped through that crack in the walls of my heart.
Now I see a new life, and I’m ready to start.
We know our forever’s a little bit late,
And both of us know - we better not wait.
I forgot about love, but you showed me how.
I think my forever is starting right now.
The veins in our hands show the years that we’ve lived,
But both of us still have a lot more to give.
The gray in our hair doesn’t color our soul.
Inside us we feel like we’re twenty years old.
CHORUS
Our future is shorter but all the more sweet.
The adventures we’ll have will make life complete.
We’ll walk hand-in-hand through the time we have left.
Each day together we know will be blessed.
CHORUS
