|
Steel hair and a wheelchair, I'm living day by day |
|
My mind is getting slower and my body's in decay |
|
But frannie, you're still beautiful, just like the day we met |
|
I still know that you're coming when I see your silhouette |
|
My legs can't hold my body and my arms are both so weak |
|
The kids brush me away like I'm a dusty old antique |
|
But frannie, you still look at me like I am 25 |
|
You're still my blushing bride and that's what's keeping me alive |
|
I ain't getting any younger |
|
And frannie, you're older too |
|
But I ain't lost my hunger |
|
I am still the one who waits for you, and |
|
I'll be here from this day on |
|
Until they stick me in the lawn |
|
Yeah, I'll be here |
|
There's no time to waste now trying to tell the world goodbye |
|
Yesterday's so far away and tomorrow's all a lie |
|
So frannie, take my hand and let's go live another day |
|
It might not be our last, but it's a step along the way |
|
I ain't getting any younger |
|
And frannie, you're older too |
|
But I ain't lost my hunger |
|
I am still the one who waits for you, and |
|
I'll be here from this day on |
|
Until they stick us in the lawn |
|
Yeah, I'll be here |
