**“Grow Old, Stay Young”**

*(Verse 1)*  
Saw you first in neon light,  
Galaxy spinning on a stranger’s night  
Smiles exchanged, but the timing was off  
Your hopeful heart, my hand with someone else’s lock  
But time, she’s kind, and fate rewinds—  
Found you again down a different line  
Seventeen years, still catch your eye  
Just like that first time

*(Pre-Chorus)*  
From hands in the dark to hearts on the line  
We talked ‘til the dawn, let the world wait behind  
Hey Joel, with you, it all feels right  
You’re my Monday morning, my Saturday night

*(Chorus)*  
Let’s keep dancing in the kitchen  
Laughing in the hall  
Every Tuesday night, you’re there when I fall  
Travel the world or just sit on the floor  
With Norman between us, I couldn’t ask for more  
You’re my best friend, my heart, my one  
Let’s grow old together, but stay young

*(Verse 2)*  
Wedding bells and wild sunflowers  
August heat, those honeymoon hours  
Remember the joy, remember the ache  
All the memories, even the ones that break  
You hold me close in the hardest times  
We work out together, we work through life  
Cassidy’s smile—your love in her eyes  
You step right in and you make things shine

*(Pre-Chorus)*  
From Casablanca nights to a movie at home  
Pearl ring shining, never feel alone  
You found your oyster, you never let go  
Now every day, I want you to know—

*(Chorus)*  
Let’s keep dancing in the kitchen  
Laughing in the hall  
Every Tuesday night, you’re there when I fall  
Travel the world or just sit on the floor  
With Norman between us, I couldn’t ask for more  
You’re my best friend, my heart, my one  
Let’s grow old together, but stay young

*(Bridge)*  
If life is a song, you’re my favorite part  
Stardust and sweat, you ignite my heart  
All these years later, you’re still the one  
Here’s my hand, let’s outrun the sun

*(Chorus)*  
Let’s keep dancing in the kitchen  
Laughing in the hall  
Every Tuesday night, you’re there when I fall  
Travel the world or just sit on the floor  
With Norman between us, I couldn’t ask for more  
You’re my best friend, my heart, my one  
Let’s grow old together, but stay young

*(Outro)*  
Yeah, you’re my best friend, my heart, my one  
Let’s grow old together, but stay young
