lyrics

When you were just 18
and I was only one year younger
you gave me everything
I gave you all I had to offer
with a kiss and a ring at the end of spring
with our friends all gathered round
we danced until we couldn't even hear the sound

When the story's told
and the lies gone cold
they will add all the years to the time we had
When we're much too old
for this rock 'n' roll
I will sing I will shout you this lullaby

When you turned 21
and found out you would be a mother
we were so damn poor
we grew up for our baby daughter
With a crash and a bang
all the angels sang as we raised our baby girl
we held each other tight
so they couldn't take us down

When the story's told
and the lies gone cold
they will add all the years to the time we had
When we're much too old
for this rock 'n' roll
I will sing I will shout you this lullaby

When you turned 31
you lost your sister, dad and mother
your world turned upside down
and all we had left was each other
with a tooth and a nail cause we could not fail
with another baby girl
I'm gonna build us stronger
I'm gonna make us proud

When the story's told
and the lies gone cold
they will add all the years to the time we had
When we're much too old
for this rock 'n' roll
I will sing I will shout you this lullaby

Hush little baby don't you cry
I will send a bird to fly
'cross mountains hills and plains
just to make you whole again
