That Way

Watch as our children play and arrive at a thought ‘bout a newborn babe
All their world- from a pawnshop ring
Once you heard me say, fate, brought me a day when I righted all my wrongs
Through a metamorphic chase
If it meant that you’d stay it was staying that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
I know I’ve seen you before
My memory goes so just to be sure-
You’re the girl from the front porch swing where we rock away, sway
We’re old and grey and been side by side so long we’ve said all there is to say
And I’m more than okay with it staying that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
I’ll rest and patiently wait for you to undress yourself at the gates
Smile as I ask, «wanna meet the king?»
In linen and lace, grace
A hand on your waist as I pull you in so strong for an eternal embrace
Since before we were made it was written that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
That way, that way, that way, that way
