        40 Years Ago           (Rock Song)
        ============  

 
 I knew a girl from the wild-land life, 
 She had a wicked disease - wait till you meet her!
 She hung out with the stars that shine, 
 Tears from the heart - her smile could deliver.
 You thought you were a country girl..
 I thought you were a miracle..
 You came inside my world - and left it shattering.
 
    You tried to tell me,
    Why be old when you can be young now baby..?
    No more pain to hurt you.
    You were trying to find the reasons why -
    How we live before we die!...


 I knew a girl with a story of ages,
 She had a heart of pain, her life was the same. 
 She couldn't get the words untied,
 Trying to find the girl inside.
 You thought life was growing old..
 Wake up! - It's time you were told..
 Light the fire - it's cold outside - see what's happening?

    I tried to tell you.
    Don't let yourself down by hangin' around now baby..
    Escape the past inside you.
    You're having the time - the time of Your life,
    Live now, give now, let love fill your mind!...
    Give all you keep inside!..
    Then you'll see the light!...
