[Verse 1]
Hello my friend
It's getting harder to pretend
That the seasons always change, but never end
Was only ten when I learned that love depends
On the time it takes for broken hearts to mend

[Pre-Chorus]
Forget me, let me down
Either way, I'll always be around

[Chorus]
When I'm old and holding crutches on one knee
I'll care for you, will you care for me?
When your tired eyes are turning eighty-three
I'll be there for you, will you be there for me?

[Verse 2]
I hate to ask, I tried to put you in my past
Harmless fun and cutting class, it never lasts
Well, I want more than coming over when you're bored
You're the only one I can't ignore, forever yours

[Chorus]
When I'm old and holding crutches on one knee
I'll care for you, will you care for me?
When your tired eyes are turning eighty-three
I'll be there for you, will you be there for me?
[Bridge]
I'll care for you
Will you care for me?
When you fall asleep
I'll be there for you
Will you be there for me?

[Chorus]
When I'm old and holding crutches on one knee
I'll care for you, will you care for me?
When your tired eyes are turning eighty-three
I'll be there for you, will you be there for me?

[Outro]
Forget me, let me down
Either way, I'll always be around
