We were late for the service
It started at nine
Fucked up by the jet lag and last night's box wine
My suit barely fit
But you said I looked fine
And you'd love me til the day I die
Old men with umbrellas were staring us down
As a 12 year old boy threw some dirt in the ground
I whispered a joke while I tried not to cry
And thought "I'll love her til the day I die"
So life unwinds
There's no fooling time
I'll take every night that she sleeps at my side
And love her til the day I die
We were late for old age
But it suited us fine
I got used to the aches
And how old fingers don't align
But I'd never let go and hoped you take it as a sign
That I'd love you til the day I die
So life unwinds
Failed to fool time
I'll take every night that she sleeps at my side
And love her til the day I die
Now I can't be late 'cause I'm here all the time
Smiling through the morphine that drips down the line
And if heaven denies me, I don't think I'll mind
Cause I loved her til the day I died
I loved her til the day I died
