We grew up in towns that weren't far apart Where milkman delivered on horses & cart Those lazy old days when life seemed so slow And Doris Day sang on our radio But something was missing no spring to my stride No one was standing, there by my side But the world keeps on spinning and time marches on & a lifetime seems over before its begun So live for each day & tell her you love her, your wife, your daughter, your sister, your mother How in the Hell did we make it this far 40 long years 'neath a wandering star I loved you back then - but now more by far For 40 long years for 40 long years For 40 long years my heart's borne the scar TIME, TIME, TIME Along came the sixties the Beatles the Stones We danced to their tunes like mechanical clones (yeah, yeah yeah) Gun fire in Dallas, a President lost Where were you standing then? What was the cost? Went to a dance and came home with a bride Now you were standing, there by my side But the world keeps on spinning and time marches on & a lifetime seems over before its begun So live for each day & tell her you love her, your wife, your daughter, your sister, your mother How in the Hell did we make it this far 40 long years 'neath a wandering star I loved you back then - but now more by far For 40 long years for 40 long years For 40 long years my heart's borne the scar Time-time-time Time-time-time Then came the seventies the drug hippy scene We flew off to London to visit the Queen Paced the streets of the Monopoly board Were sent to the Tower Where the crown jewels were stored Double deck buses, Black taxis to ride And you rode with me, right by my side But the world keeps on spinning and time marches on & a lifetime seems over before its begun So live for each day & tell her you love her, your wife, your daughter, your sister, your mother How in the Hell did we make it this far 40 long years 'neath a wandering star I loved you back then - but now more by far For 40 long years for 40 long years For 40 long years my heart's borne the scar Time time time Time time time The nineties, two thousand, two thousand & ten Our hair has gone grey & our bones are ache'in.. The world has gone crazy we're losing the Race What has become Of that old Fifties pace But through a great lifetime I say with much pride You have been with me, there by my side But the world keeps on spinning and time marches on & a lifetime seems over before its begun So live for each day & tell her you love her, your wife, your daughter, your sister, your mother Your husband, your son, your father, your brother How in the Hell did we make it this far 40 long years 'neath a wandering star I loved you back then - but now more by far For 40 long years, for 40 long years For 40 long years... my heart's... borne the scar
