I STILL LOVE YOU

 

 

 

 

Silver shines in my hair and life is a little slower

I see my reflection everywhere and I see I’m getting older.

But I still love you just like before

when I was a younger man waiting at your door

for you to greet me with a kiss and a smile

and just to be with you, for a little while.

 

 

 

Life is now a slow dance, no more quick-step for me

don’t think I’d manage a Tango, a slow waltz it must be.

But I still love you just like before

when I was a younger man on the dance floor

with you in my arms and the music in my ear

young and in love, with the one I held near.

 

 

 

As I get older, there are things that are harder to do

but there is nothing easier than being in love with you.

And I still love you just like before

when I was a younger man just wanting you more

And the future to always be a life of you and me

For there just isn‘t a better place to be.
