Backstory:

I wrote this for my wife, Carolyn, and it started out as "After All These Years." When it was pointed out to me that there was already a huge hit with that title, it was suggested to me by a very successful writer that I call it simply, "Fifty Years." 

Lyrics:

                                                  
                             Fifty Years
Vs 1 
You ask: if after fifty years, will I be lovin’ you?
And will you ---- be as dear to me ---- as when our love was new?
Let me settle all your doubts, and kiss away your tears
‘Cause you will ---- be my darling for ---- ---- much more than Fifty years

Chorus
Fifty years and more won’t change the way I feel
Our love will shine like gold ---- showing the world its real
I want to say very plain, so you’ll be sure to hear
You will ---- be my darling for ---- ---- much more than fifty years

Vs 2 
Your loving arms have sheltered me when storms of life arose
And since the day we said “I Do” my heart’s been yours alone
But I still long to hear you say, the promise you’ve made clear
That, I will ---- be your darling for ---- ---- much more than fifty years

Repeat Chorus 

Bridge 
I know that we may kiss for a final time
But I’ll still be lovin’ you ---- when this world’s left behind
Ending
I’ll meet you in a better land, and say for all to hear
That you will ---- be my darling for ---- ---- much more than fifty years
