Now that I'm older and on the downside of the hill
It should be a breeze living life with ease
but there's this feeling like I'm climbing still

I'm everything that I've done on my journey to where I am
Living with my share of regrets, but it's too late now, my friend
It's all water under the bridge, and everything must end
There comes a time when you realize you can never go back again

From this day forward, everything is new
You made it possible by just being you
You're the one that I want by my side
You're the only one that I want to share my ride

From this point on, it's a one-way ride
There's no need to run and hide
Sit down beside me and hold my hand
We'll take this ride together as far as we can

No one said we can't enjoy the ride, so that's just what we'll do
Nothing but love and laughter coming from me and you
Every day for the rest of our lives, we'll take this slow ride down
with hearts that matter and hearts that care
Nothing but love all around

From this day forward, everything is new
You made it possible by just being you
You're the one that I want by my side
You're the only one that I want to share my ride

This is the only ride for you; it's where you have to be
Come and sit down beside me, come on and you'll see
Music and laughter, herbs, and wine
Love will consume all of our time

We'll ride the river under a full moon's light
We'll make love under millions of stars shining in the night
We'll be together for this slow ride down
You'll feel nothing but loved; it will be all around

There's no other that I'd want to ride with me
So sit down beside me it's where you're meant to be
Feel my love; it's so much stronger than my words
I'll show you my love to prove what you've heard

You're the one that I want by my side
You're the only one that I want to share my ride
From this day forward, everything is new
You made it possible by just being you
