When we were children ... just little children
I used to tease you and pull your hair.
As we got older ... a little bit older
I ignored you like you weren't there.
That's just the way things were
That's just the way things were.
Then we were teenage ... crazy teenage
That's when I found that I loved you.
Soon we were married ... happily married
and soon became parents too.
That's just the way things were
That's just the way things were.
As we got older ... a little bit older
aging like a fine red wine.
When we were older ... quite a bit older
stay together throughout all time.
That's just the way things are
That's just the way things are.
That's just the way things are
That's just the way things are
