when you get older
so much older than you are today
will you remember
all those things that i use to say
to make you laugh
and make you cry
i'm sorry that i made you cry
i hate it when you cry
when you get older
so much older we are
will you remember me
and the way that we are
when you get older
will you remember all those things we did together
you turn your head and i'll be staring at you forever
yeah right next to you
when you get older
will you remember me
cause i'll remember you

like smoke through a keyhole
everybody knows time goes fast
they haven't found a way to make it last
none that i know
but that's okay though
i got my 4 o'clock afternoon TV shows
and all these friends around me
saying yeah way to go
these people i won't even know
when i get older that's the way it's gonna be
when you get older
will you still remember me

when you get older
will you remember all those things we did together
you turn your head and i'll be staring at you forever
yeah that would be cool
when you get older
will you remember me
cause i'll remember you
this is it
these are the time we can't forget
no matter what we do yeah
don't forget about me baby
i promise
i won't forget about you
when you get older
will you remember all those things we did together
you turn your head and i'll be staring at you forever
yeah right next to you
when you get older
will you remember me
cause i'll remember you
will you remember me
cause i'll remember you
will you remember me baby
i promise i won't forget about you
