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 whileI 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 our 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 now I'll ever know

He said my heart is faint, will minds regret?

And left him crying next to the chapel′s 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)

I was careless as a child (and die at the same time)

There′s a part of me that still believes (let's grow old together)

My soul will soar above the trees (and die at the same time)

A desperate fear flows through my blood (let′s grow old together)

Our dead love's buried beneath the mud (and die at the same time)

A desperate fear flows through my blood (let′s grow old together)

Our dead love's buried beneath the mud (and die at the same time)
