He said to lose my life or lose my love That's the nightmare I've been running from So let me hold you in my arms a while I was always careless as a child And there's a part of me that still believes My soul will soar above the trees But a desperate fear flows through my blood That a dead love's buried beneath the mud Let's grow old together and die at the same time Let's grow old together and die at the same time I said I've got no time, I have to go And I was more right than I will ever know He said my heart is faded, well mine's regret And left him crying next to the chapel steps Let's grow old together and die at the same time Let's grow old together and die at the same time He said, let's grow old together and die at the same time Let's grow old together and die at the same time He said He said to lose my life or lose my love That's the nightmare I've been running from So let me hold you in my arms a while (Let's grow old together and die at the same time) I was always careless as a child There's a part of me that still believes (Let's grow old together and die at the same time) My soul will soar above the trees A desperate fear flows through my blood (He said, let's grow old together and die at the same time) A dead love's buried beneath the mud A desperate fear flows through my blood (Let's grow old together and die at the same time) A dead love's buried beneath the mud
