Let’s grow old together
Sitting on the bench with nowhere to go
Old together

Let’s be idle together
Staying up late and lying in longer
Laughing and scratching
Retelling stories we’ve shared 
Through the years

Let’s go walk together
Down to the lake
The rain will hold off
I hear the geese 
Have landed

There’s a bench by the lake
We’ll hold hands and sit
With nothing to do
together
