If It's Not Forever

When you cross my mind It's right before I go to bed I see your face lit up in red Out in the suburbs It's been a while now We're not what we used to be Guess that's just not what we need If it's not forever When we're old and grey We'll both have these memories You might be in London with your brother Half a world away None of that can change What it was like To be young, to be alive When we're old and grey Memories never age If it stays this way I know we'd be all right We had our place and our time And I wouldn't change it So what it's over now I still get to think about it Anytime I close my eyes Baby when we're old and grey We'll both have these memories I might be in Paris with a lover Baby who can say None of that can change What it was like To be young, to be alive When we're old and grey Memories never age Right back to the night we met Your glass of wine and my rain jacket I can't remember what we said But I was flying Left the bar and I chased you down Said you liked having me around No we never figured out how it worked for us If it's not forever that's just fine because Baby when we're old and grey We'll both have these memories You might be in London with your brother Half a world away None of that can change What it was like To be young, to be alive When we're old and grey Memories never age Memories never age
