When I'm Sixty-Four


bouche

Recommended Posts

i did think the same thing. when I was in grade five, there was a 25th anniversary for my grade school in Kingston. We buried a time capsule at the event that was to be opened in 25 years.

I thought to myself that I would be 35 and to me at 10 that seemed really old and unreachable. I never forgot about that time capsule and I just found out that they are digging it up in October. I think that will be pretty neat.

I may have put a Star Wars figure in there that I could sell on Ebay (among the other finds). I'm staking a claim on that capsule!

When I get older losing my hair,

Many years from now.

Will you still be sending me a valentine

Birthday greetings bottle of wine.

If I'd been out till quarter to three

Would you lock the door,

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four.

You'll be older too,

And if you say the word,

I could stay with you.

I could be handy, mending a fuse

When your lights have gone.

You can knit a sweater by the fireside

Sunday mornings go for a ride,

Doing the garden, digging the weeds,

Who could ask for more.

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four.

Every summer we can rent a cottage,

In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear

We shall scrimp and save

Grandchildren on your knee

Vera Chuck & Dave

Send me a postcard, drop me a line,

Stating point of view

Indicate precisely what you mean to say

Yours sincerely, wasting away

Give me your answer, fill in a form

Mine for evermore

Will you still need me, will you still feed me,

When I'm sixty-four.
