When I am old
I'll think of all the hearts I broke
To be here with you
When I am grey
And somewhat vague and too confused
I know I'll still remember you the very most
And all the days will wrap around our fingers
They'll hang around our hearts like bits of stars
And all the tears we've counted
All the memories we thought would linger
Disappear
They disappear
When I lay down
And close my eyes to see if Jesus died for me
And that there is a God
I'll wait for you
Beyond the lights where darkness fights
To keep the sun from coming up
And all the days will wrap around our fingers
They'll hang around our hearts like bits of stars
And all the tears we've counted
All the memories we thought would linger
Disappear
They disappear
Can't you see
That all of me
Is inside of you
Though I'm gone
I'm like a song
That sings and sighs and coos
When I am old
I'll sift through all the words I spoke
And picture all our happy times
I'll kiss your face
And think about the life we made
With all our might
With all that love
And all the days will wrap around our fingers
They'll hang around our hearts like bits of stars
And all the tears we've counted
All the memories we thought would linger
Disappear
Oh they disappear
