Line 22:
* Used as [[Arc Words]] in the [[Christopher Nolan]] movie ''[[Inception]]''... {{spoiler|Due to the effects of [[Year Inside, Hour Outside]] two lovers do this while trapped within the dream world.}}
* The two main characters of ''[[The Notebook]]'' live together well into old age.
* In ''[[Don Juan Demarco|Don Juan DeMarco]]'', the title character helps a therapist & his wife discover the possibilities for passion though their retirement years. Not a bad prospect!
 
== Literature ==
* [[Raymond E. Feist]] likes to follow his characters and their romantic interests well into their twilight years, which leads to more than a few cases of this trope. See [[Tear Jerker|Jimmy the Hand/Duke James' death]] in ''The Serpentwar Saga''.
 
== [[Live Action TV]] ==
* A possible version of reality in one episode of ''[[Farscape (TV)|Farscape]]''; a [[Reset Button]] ensured it didn't happen, at least not the way it's depicted.
** If you're talking about "The Locket", that wasn't a romantic relationship, though they did grow old together (and it is very strongly implied that they were in love.)
* On the series finale of ''[[Charmed (TV)|Charmed]]'', Piper and Leo travel to the future and meet themselves as an elderly couple. Grandma!Piper even had fresh- baked cookies ready for them in expectation of their meeting.
* ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' ran a skit that poked fun at [[Jessica Simpson]] and Nick Lachey when they were married and had a reality show, by showing what things might be like fifty years down the road. In short, Jessica was still a [[Brainless Beauty]], but poor Nick needed to get his eyeballs replaced from rolling them so much over the years.
 
Line 58:
Is the one where I am growing old with you. }}
* Title of one of the last songs [[John Lennon]] ever wrote. [[Tear Jerker|Sadly averted]].
* [[Journey (Musicband)|Journey]]'s song "After All these Years" is sung from the point of view of a fellow who is [[Happily Married]] and utterly delighted that he's had the chance to have a long life alongside his wife.
* The premise of [[Stan Rogers]]' "Forty-Five Years" from his debut album, "Fogarty's Cove".

Youth shows but half; trust God: see all nor be afraid!" }}
