WHEN YOU AND I WERE YOUNG, MAGGIE
BELIEVE ME, IF ALL THOSE ENDEARING YOUNG CHARMS
I'LL TAKE YOU HOME AGAIN, KATHLEEN
Silver Threads Among The Gold
WHEN I FIRST CAME TO THIS LAND
* *[maybe not "happy" marriage, but marriage that lasts]
Other genres:
Years From Now (Don Williams)
Always (Irving Berlin)
There's also a country song with a line like
"...when your hair is turned to silver, I'll still love to lay you down." Can't recall who sang it--Merle Haggard, maybe?

And then in another vein, but still germane, I think:
from Fiddler on the roof
Sunrise, Sunset and
Do You Love Me?

There's also a Yiddish song which, please forgive me, I'm about to spell wrong, since I don't have my sheet music in front of me:
"Achtzig Ehr Und SiebenSieben Sie"
("He's Eighty and She's Seventy-Seven"
