Look at me, eighteen and tanned,
Behind the wheel of my old van,
Hotel California turned up loud,
No air-conditioning, windows down.
Look at you smilin at me,
Don t know when I ve been as happy,
As that weekend out in Joshua Tree,
When I got down on my knees.
An I like lookin at old photographs.
Reminds me of the way we ve always made each other laugh.

Pictures of a life we ve made together.
Memories of a love that just gets better with time.
So many good times,
There s no way I will forget.
They ve got me thinkin bout pictures,
We haven t taken yet.

Next year let s go to Disneyworld,
Can t wait to see our little girl,
Hold hands with Mickey Mouse,
Chocolate ice-cream on her mouth.
An you ll get all upset when I,
Snap you comin off that ride,
With that pasty white look:
You won t put that one in our book.
An I like lookin back at all the things we ve done.
But I love dreamin of the years yet to come.
