Turnin' back the pages I remember how it was with you and me You were just eighteen or so and I was still a kid at twenty-three And we had our share of hard times when we married in the spring of '61 But you remember don't you babe how it was to be in love when we were young
It was wakin' in the morning and feelin' deep inside that we were one It was makin' love and dreamin' and hopin' that the best was yet to come It was talkin' of tomorrow learnin' how to fly and how to fall It was reachin' high for rainbows and believin' one by one we'll catch 'em all
Lookin' back I wonder how we ever made it down the road this far Cause I'm still workin' for the county and our savings won't have fill the mason jar But after all we're still together and I don't regret one thing we ever tried We're still reachin' out with age and hopin' that old wishin' well ain't dry
Yeah we're wakin' in the morning and knowin' deep inside that we were one Makin' love and dreamin' and lookin' there at all the things we done Talkin' of tomorrow still learnin' how to fly and how to fall We're still reachin' high for rainbows and still believin' we'll ever catch 'em all
Hmm in fact we ain't never cut no rainbows Honey I don't suppose it really matters much at all
We'll wakin' in the morning and knowin' deep inside that we were one Keep makin' love and dreamin' and lookin' there at all the things we done
