Forty Winters Lyrics - Sex And Gasoline - Rodney Crowell

Forty winters, cold and dark 

Surround you like a beauty mark 

 

A tilt on the accesses 

That time of year 

And the flesh of your cheekbones 

Says no damage here 

 

The first time I saw you 

There was ice on the ground 

And the girl in the greenhouse said 

Paradise found 

 

Forty winters, forty winters 

Forty winters straight in line 

Were you not my valentine?

Orange blossoms and sandal woods 

Oaken moss and musk 

Will fragrance your senses 

From daylight till dusk 

 

You made the simple life 

Fit for a king 

An oaten meal by candle light 

A beautiful thing 

 

Forty winters, forty winters 

Forty winters, forty winters 

 

Why can't I break the spell 

Shake you and make you well? 

What is it blinding me 

That keeps you from finding me? 

 

I know you're in there 

You haven't gone somewhere 

That God only knows about 

Leaving me frozen out 

 

Photos 

 

Darling, I promise you this 

I won't let you drown in the mist 

 

Forty winters, dark and drear 

Could not age you one short year 

 

It's like I'm trapped beneath the bell jar 

As big as the earth 

And I'm running to reach you 

For all that I'm worth 

 

I'll bathe you and feed you 

And I'll tend to your grace 

But don't make me leave you 

In such a dark place 

 

I'm drunk on the bitterness 

That sorrow and [Incomprehensible] 

And I know that tomorrow 

Is out of my hands 

 

Until we're together 

I'll sleep in the snow 

And I'll love you forever 

'Cause that all I know 

 

Forty winters, forty winters 

Forty winters, forty winters 

Forty winters, forty winters
