oh, oh, oh, if we'd only known

one day, you'll be old, bald, and wrinkly

but i'll still want to hold your hand

one day, we'll rock on the front porch for hours

having conversations we don't understand


but for now, we're young and we're in love

and we're eating ramen and drinking tea

but for now, we're struggling to buy couches

and we're wondering how life is gonna be


and we'll say oh, oh, oh - if we'd only known

things might have turned a different way

and we'll say oh, oh, oh - i wouldn't change a thing though

because i woke up to your face every day


one day, we'll laugh at all the little silly things

we argued about along the way

one day, we'll wonder why we ever had a plan

and we'll be glad that plan went astray


but for now, we're living and we're learning

and we're trying to fit everything in

but for now, we're discussing the pros and cons of doorknobs

and wondering when life's gonna begin


and we'll say oh, oh, oh - if we'd only known

things might have turned a different way

and we'll say oh, oh, oh - i wouldn't change a thing though

because i woke up to your face every day


but for now, we're silly stupid happy

and it's a blessing beyond what we could dream

but for now, we're taking it one day at a time

and knowing we've got a lot of life to see

  1. Is this a work of your own? If so, a big round of applause and a huge bravo and/or kudos, because I really enjoyed reading this.
