That old man was married They fought like dogs and cats Everybody wondered How long could it last? Fifty years of living Neither one of them packed their bags Lately he's been missing the way she used to nag I want a love like that I want a love like that I want a love like that A love like that This old dog remembers when he owned the world Chasing after fenders while his master chased the girls Now the two of them sit here Each pretending the other's old Each of them defending the world they used to know I want a love like that I want a love like that I want a love like that A love like that That girl lost her wonder So she waited on a train Listening for the thunder When somebody called her name Dressed in tattered sneaker And hardly tall enough to reach her knees Threw his arms around her crying Mama, please don't leave I want a love like that I want a love like that I want a love like that A love like that Rivers feed the ocean Stars caress the sky The wind is just a motion To help the sparrows fly I know you wanted to question What my hearts has been searching for I saw forever once when the ocean kissed the shore I want a love like that I want a love like that I want a love like that A love like that I want a love like that
