Let me just throw this out your way
If we met today, this late in the game
Would you still fall for me, the man I now am
With the ways that I have changed

Not just the thinning of the hair
Or the more attitude of really don't care
Where the older I get the less savoir faire
With much less finesse and no visible flair  

Or the conversations that tend to run dry
As I nod along with that glaze in my eyes
I know that you love me cause I see the signs
But if we met today would you give me a try

The way I ask where the hidden things are
From where’s this in the fridge
to the keys of my car
And my never ending list of Honey do’s
That's fairly unused with more don’ts than do’s

Over the years I've grown on you gradually
So I know in the distance that bell still rings
But if we met today, this late in the game
I wonder, would you still fall for me
