Tending To

Mm

A white picket fence needs repainting

A front porch swing needs rehanging

And every shingle on the roof needs replacing

After some time

Hardwood floors will get dusty

That pretty kitchen sink will get rusty

That dream double oven won't be trusty

Before too long

'Cause something new is bound to be get old

No matter what you do, time takes its toll

But love can stay strong and a dream can stay alive

It just takes a little work, a polish and a shine

Just 'cause something's worn don't mean it ain't worth seeing through

After a while everything needs tending to

So when you lose that sparkle on that diamond

When the flowers on the counter start dying

It ain't bad, it only means it's perfect timing

To patch it up

No, don't give up

'Cause something new is bound to be get old

No matter what you do, time takes its toll

But love can stay strong and a dream can stay alive

It just takes a little work, a polish and a shine

Just 'cause something's worn don't mean it ain't worth seeing through

After a while everything needs tending to

After a while everything needs tending to

Oohh
