99 Years (with Jennifer Nettles)

Boy meets girl and the world stops turning

She makes him forget all the rules he was learning

They give a toast to the ones who never stop hoping

With not much to lean on and eyes wide open

And they look up high and wonder

What the future's gonna hold

Will we look back down on 99 years of a wonderful life?

Will we laugh till we cried and our love grew stronger with every fight?

There'll be a thousand moments for you to say, I told you

And a million more for us to say, I love you

So let's look forward to you and I looking back

At 99 years like that

At 99 years like that

They build a house of love in the face of worry

But life has a way of rewriting the story (Their story)

There were times when it looked like nothing could save them

And there were times when it looked like nothing could break them

They keep promising each other what the future's gonna hold

Will we look back down on 99 years of a wonderful life?

Will we laugh till we cried and our love grew stronger with every fight?

There'll be a thousand moments for you to say, I told you

And a million more for us to say, I love you

So let's look forward to you and I looking back

To 99 years of

Nothing unspoken

Live every day hoping

That when we feel broken

Our scars make us golden

Still choose you and I

Will we look back down on 99 years of a wonderful life?

Will we laugh till we cried and our love grew stronger with every fight?

There'll be a thousand moments for you to say, I told you

And a million more for us to say, I love you

So let's look forward to you and I looking back

At 99 years like that

99 years like that

At 99 years like that
