When you cross my mind
It's right before I go to bed
I see your face lit up in red
Out in the suburbs
It's been a while now
We're not what we used to be
Guess that's just not what we need
If it's not forever
When we're old and grey
We'll both have these memories
You might be in London with your brother
Half a world away
None of that can change
What it was like
To be young, to be alive
When we're old and grey
Memories never age
If it stays this way
I know we'd be all right
We had our place and our time
And I wouldn't change it
So what it's over now
I still get to think about it
Anytime I close my eyes
Baby when we're old and grey
We'll both have these memories
I might be in Paris with a lover
Baby who can say
None of that can change
What it was like
To be young, to be alive
When we're old and grey
Memories never age
Right back to the night we met
Your glass of wine and my rain jacket
I can't remember what we said
But I was flying
Left the bar and I chased you down
Said you liked having me around
No we never figured out how it worked for us
If it's not forever that's just fine because
Baby when we're old and grey
We'll both have these memories
You might be in London with your brother
Half a world away
None of that can change
What it was like
To be young, to be alive
When we're old and grey
Memories never age
Memories never age
