"crutches" lyrics

Hello my friend
It's getting harder to pretend
That the seasons always change, but never end
Was only ten when I learned that love depends
On the time it takes for broken hearts to mend

Forget me, let me down
Either way, I'll always be around

When I'm old and holding crutches on one knee
I'll care for you, will you care for me?
When your tired eyes are turning eighty-three
I'll be there for you, will you be there for me?

I hate to ask, I tried to put you in my past
Harmless fun and cutting class, it never lasts
Well, I want more than coming over when you're bored
You're the only one I can't ignore, forever yours

When I'm old and holding crutches on one knee
I'll care for you, will you care for me?
When your tired eyes are turning eighty-three
I'll be there for you, will you be there for me?

I'll care for you
Will you care for me?
When you fall asleep
I'll be there for you
Will you be there for me?

When I'm old and holding crutches on one knee
I'll care for you, will you care for me?
When your tired eyes are turning eighty-three
I'll be there for you, will you be there for me?

Forget me, let me down
Either way, I'll always be around
