Lyrics
I got to thinking, about years and years ago
About how we met and how I came to love you so
And it seemed to me that what we seek is constancy
It's been 30 years and here we are still, you and me
Look at us now, look at us now
Look at us now (the years fall away just like rain)
Look at us now (they wash us with joy and with pain)
Look at us now (but on that day our maker calls)
Baby, look at us now (we two will remain)
Our kids both think of us as just 'old mom and dad'
Got no idea about the times we two have had
But they're the best thing you and I have ever done
Our pretty little girl, and our handsome son
Look at them now, look at them now
Look at us now (the years fall away just like rain)
Look at us now (they wash us with joy and with pain)
Look at us now (but on that day our maker calls)
Baby, look at us now (we two will remain)
Sure we got the grey hair, got the lines around the eyes
But I still kid around with you and laugh at your replies
Take a closer look, take a closer look
Look at us now
I was a boy of 18, you were just a girl
That day you set my silly head into a whirl
But I loved you from the moment I set eyes on you
I was awkward, I was tongue-tied, but I hoped you'd love me too
Look at us now, look at us now
Look at us now (the years fall away just like rain)
Look at us now (they wash us with joy and with pain)
Look at us now (but on that day our maker calls)
Baby, look at us now (we two will remain)
