When I Go

If we're both not married by 22,
Could I be so bold and ask you?
If we're both not married by 23,
Will ya make my year? Ask me

If we're both not married by 24,
Will you pass me those kneepads and I'll get on the floor?
If we're both not married by 25,
I Hope that this sun-childish spark's still alive

'Cuz there are so many lessons
That I just never cared to learn
And there are so many questions
That still burn
Like will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?

If I get to 30 and I don't have a wife,
I'll ask you nicely, but I won't ask twice
If I get to 40 and I don't have a spouse,
I'll fashion you a letter and I'll send it to your house

If I get to 60 will you let me slip away
Into an arm chair for the rest of my days?
'Cuz you've got your family and I've got mine
The love that we share is for another time

'Cuz there are so many lessons
That I just never cared to learn
And there are so many questions
That still burn
Like will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
Will you hold my hand when I go?
