[Verse 1] The morning mirror tells a brand new story The lines around my eyes are shifting place I used to chase the flashing lights and glory But now I find the beauty in the pace The wild fires of youth have turned to embers A steady glow that keeps the chill away [Chorus] And when I get old and grey I won't regret a single yesterday We'll rock on the porch as the sun goes down Living our lives on the edge of town With silver hair and stories left to say We’ll find the gold inside the grey [Verse 2] My hands are rougher than they used to be They hold the weight of everything we made Each wrinkle is a roadmap of a memory A promise kept that never came to fade We don't need to run to catch the highway We’re perfectly content to simply stay [Chorus] And when I get old and grey I won't regret a single yesterday We'll rock on the porch as the sun goes down Living our lives on the edge of town With silver hair and stories left to say We’ll find the gold inside the grey [Bridge] Time is a river, it flows too fast But we built a castle that's made to last Let the clock keep ticking, let the years roll by I’ll look at you with that same old light in my eye [Guitar Solo] [Soft, melodic acoustic guitar solo] [Chorus] And when I get old and grey I won't regret a single yesterday We'll rock on the porch as the sun goes down Living our lives on the edge of town With silver hair and stories left to say We’ll find the gold inside the grey [Outro] Inside the grey... Just you and me, comfortably grey... [Soft guitar pluck] [Fade out] [End]
