She′s a flower among the weeds

More beautiful than any rose

I put the creases in her shoesShe put the crinkle in my nose

I'll have wrinkles when I′m young

From all the laughing, I suppose

And I'll hold your heart forever

Long after I propose, oh-oh

Hold her while you can

'Cause someday you won′t get the chance (ooh-ooh)

Cherish every moment

And all the time you spend (ooh-ooh)

′Cause this life will all be over

My love for you won't end

So, I′ll hold her while I can

'Til the one day that I get the chance again

She′s a doll at 83

Acting like we both just met

Reminding me of times that I swore I'd not forget

Now I′m 85 years old (ooh-ooh)

Alone lying on this bed (ooh-ooh)

Missing the sound of her voice

And the three words that she once said

Hold her while you can

'Cause someday you won't get the chance (ooh-ooh)

Cherish every moment

And all the time you spend (ooh-ooh)

′Cause this life will all be over

My love for you won′t end

So, I'll hold her while I can

′Til the one day that I get the chance again

Hold her while you can

'Cause someday you won′t get the chance

Cherish every moment

And all the time you spend

'Cause this life will all be over

My love for you won′t end

So, I'll hold her while I can

'Til the one day that I get the chance again
