FORTY WINTERS 7/01 S MacVittie, K Mitchell Forty winters have come and gone And still he believes in her He's walking down that red clay road Toward a home he once knew Bales of gold are asleep in the fields The boys on the dock give one last haul His hands they tell the story of the open sea His hearts been lost like a boat on the rocks CH: She's looking down on him now I wonder what she'll find, what she'll find She's looking down on him now with a smile with a smile She's looking down on him now That boy, yea that boy's been walking for miles( and miles) If ever there was a maid of the shore She could dance to the change of the tide She wove her song into the heart of a young man Who swore her to be his bride Some can say that it served him right To follow her into the change of the tide He's walking down that red clay road Toward a home he once knew
