Lyrics: 20 Years

20 years And she forgot Skin to skin The way they talked And the sound of love When it's spoken softly In the light of dawn 20 years And she's erased The first time that she saw his face And the memory of The way he praised The ground she walked upon 20 years and all she had to say Sorry baby, the thrill - it's just gone away He said go ahead and take the house Take all that you hold dear You've already taken my best 20 years 20 years And all due respect She's much too busy to reflect She only knows she can't connect The dots on this page 20 years And he's in hell The past is just an empty shell And all he's got for show and tell Are the lines on his face 20 years and all she had to say Sorry baby, I can't chase these blues away He said go ahead and take the kids I'll see 'em twice a year You've already taken my best 20 years 20 years of living With his heart in her hand 20 years of giving He just cannot understand
