Gone is the wild unbridled passion of our early years Hands, lips, bodies in constant embrace Now, as we grow older yet We are being overtaken by a deeper love An early morning caress, the brushing together of lips The smile in your eyes reflecting the smile in mine This is real love When the health of Mollie dog and the cats (our boys) Are the topic discussed over breakfast This is the time when we become comfortable With ourselves and with each other The time when we can reflect on the good times and the bad The time to reflect on how lucky we are To have and to hold, real love

As We Grow Old Together
Gone is the wild unbridled passion of our early years Hands, lips, bodies in constant embrace Now, as we grow older yet We are being overtaken by a deeper love An early morning caress, the brushing together of lips The smile in your eyes reflecting the smile in mine This is real love When the health of Mollie dog and the cats (our boys) Are the topic discussed over breakfast This is the time when we become comfortable With ourselves and with each other The time when we can reflect on the good times and the bad The time to reflect on how lucky we are To have and to hold, real love
