| Higher yet my love, the water is rising
|
| Up on the counter my love, grab a hold tightly
|
| Don’t you let go my dear, I can’t let you die
|
| 'Til you’re as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| Look both ways my dear, don’t trip on your laces
|
| But here you lie shot in your sleep by a bullet gone stray
|
| You gave me your blessing to keep you alive
|
| 'Til you’re as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| I’ll take all your baggage, I’ll take all your baggage
|
| And I’ll give you mine for the passage of the time, for the distance
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| For the distance
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I
|
| As old as I, as old as I, as old as I, as old as I |
