She's a flower among the weeds, more beautiful than any rose I put the creases in her shoes, she 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 Hold her while you can, cause someday you won't get the chance Cherish every moment and all the time you've spent Cause this life will all be over, but my love for you won't end So, I'll hold her while I can, till 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, alone, lying on this bed 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 Cherish every moment and all the time you've spent 'Cause this life will all be over, but my love for you won't end So, I'll hold her while I can, till 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've spent 'Cause this life will all be over, but my love for you won't end So, I'll hold her while I can, till the one day that I get the chance again
