Hold Her While You Can

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
