Eighty-five lyrics

They wake up in the morning and laugh at last night's cricket game, things have changed. She fixes his tie and he passes her handbag every day, things have changed. They get in the 1962 model they've had since new, things have changed. Her eightieth birthday is near and she fears that his breathing will change. He's eighty-five now and she prays that his heart will stay as strong as when she met him. They've sat through so much change without complaint, let his heart stay the same. He opens the door for her, he's always been such a gentleman, things have changed. She holds the hand she's held for sixty-two years, the skin is old now, things have changed. He reads the paper, she chats to the waitress, she's got so many stories to tell, of things that changed.Her eightieth birthday is near and she fears that his breathing will change. He's eighty-five now and she prays that his heart will stay as strong as when she met him. They've sat through so much change without complaint, let his heart stay the same. Sixty-two years ago when she met him, sixty-two years ago when she loved him. Sixty-two years ago when she married him, let his heart stay the same. Till death do them part and she prays that that day will be far away. They've sat through so much change without complaint, let his heart stay the same.
