Poco - Twenty Years

(paul cotton)

Well I’ve thought about the things I need
And I’m willing just to let them be
There is nothing that I’d want anyway
That could take the place of you
And all the things you do and say

We’ve come so very far in such a little time
And looking back there is only you that I find
Who was willing to give and maybe lose
You’ve got me tying up my walking shoes
These walking shoes

Twenty years on the run
I’ve only known a setting sun
Burning out on a lonely road
I’ve come to feel a lighter load

And now it’s time we can turn the page
I believe you and I have come of age
All along it was there to see
What was really meant to be

It’s a game the only one in town
It’s a game all the changes going round
It’s taken twenty years to get it on the way
And all I had to do was play
