FORTY YEARS & MORE

(Copyright 2005 Blake Rogers)


"The songs 'Forty Years & More', 'Starlit Night' and 'Another Working Day' were all inspired by, and written for, my wife Valerie.  The lyrics in these songs express my feelings, and give many of the reasons that I love her.  However, I fear they fall short of the whole truth."


I see the sun is coming up and you’re already gone

I can still see your face while I am singing this song

Think I can see where were going but I don’t know where you came from

Down a long twisted road, forty years and then some

 

I know you’re only gone for the day

 But I always wish that you could stay

I think about you darling all the time

If I lose you I would surely lose my mind

 

I want to take you far away to some mountains that I know

We’ll be together everyday and build ourselves a home

We’ll make up for the time we’ve lost, find the key to heavens door

I’ve been without you forty years and then some

And I will be with you forty years and more

 

 I believe our love was meant to be

 I believe there is a master plan

I love you for the woman that you are

And you love me for the man that I am

 

I’ve been without you forty years and then some

I’ll be with you forty years and more

I’ll be with you forty years and more
