Forty winters straight in line were you not my valentine

Orange Blossom’s Sandalwood Oak Moss and Musk

Fragrant the senses from daylight till dusk

You made the simple life fit for a king

And oatmeal by candle light a beautiful thing

For Forty Winters, forty Winters

Forty winters, forty winters

BWhy can’t I break the spell A♯mshake you and make you well

D♯mWhat is it blinding me that F♯keeps you from finding me

BI know you’re in there, you A♯mhaven’t gone somewhere

D♯mGod only knows about F♯leaving me frozen out

G♯mDarlin’ I can promise you this I wont let you drown in the mist

Forty winters cold and drear could not age you one short year

It’s like your trapped ‘neath a 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 tend to your grace

But don’t make me leave you in such a dark place

I’m drunk on the bitterness sorrow demands

And I know that tomorrow is out of my hands

Until were together I’ll sleep in the snow

I’ll love you forever and that’s all I know about

Forty Winters, forty Winters

Forty winters, forty winters
