I wanna make you smile whenever you're sad
Carry you around when your arthritis is bad
All I wanna do is grow old with you

I'll get your medicine when your tummy aches
Build you a fire if the furnace breaks
Oh it could be so nice growin old with you

I'll miss you, kiss you
Give you my coat when you are cold
Need you, feed you
I'll even let you hold the remote control

So let me do the dishes in the kitchen sink
Put you to bed when you've had too much to drink
Oh I could be the man to grow old with you
I wanna grow old with you

    General Comment:deluded, thats because no girl knows WHAT she wants.

    for me, its like its not the character he plays its just the words in the song, bit of bad and a bit of good is always the best.

    i have been in love with the same guy for 7 years but we never knew we liked each other til january this year and one night we were crashed on the sofa at mine, i had my eyes closed just lovin bein there with him and he thought i was asleep and started whisperin this song. he still doesnt know i was awake! were not together coz i had 2 move away for uni but wen i get back we agreed we would be together.

    4 years and counting....,lol its such a long time!!!

    General Comment:do girls really like all these overly sweet guys?? whatever happened to nice guys finish last?? I know of countless of guys who treat their girls or girls in general like princesses, and they almost always get the lay off!
    and somehow, the absolute, bad boy jerks always seem to get it going on for themselves.. Im really not getting this, would someone explain to me what woman want!? is what addy sandler doing by singing this the right way to go with a girl, being such a nice guy...?
