Twenty Girls Ago

[00:04.75] I was young and Bon Vivant
[00:16.67] Twenty girls ago
[00:21.54] When love was born on city nights
[00:27.96] Under falling snow
[00:34.04] How I played the same charade
[00:39.56] Drunk on first hellos
[00:45.37] A vagabond dream, hey that was me
[00:50.58] Twenty girls ago
[00:56.56] I was quick to turn the page
[01:01.73] Thirteen girls ago
[01:08.21] When love could live on lucky breaks
[01:13.24] And favorite episodes
[01:18.83] But tempers flared and teeth were bared
[01:24.64] Whenever things got slow
[01:29.68] Stuck in a rut, pushing my luck
[01:35.84] Thirteen girls ago
[01:42.07] Others may have measured time
[01:45.16] In accolades and dollar signs
[01:47.34] I had but one concern
[01:53.15] Another year, another love
[01:56.74] And the question
[01:59.05] Was it me or was it her
[02:03.91] Time was running out the door
[02:09.56] Seven girls ago
[02:15.87] We signed the lease and bought the rings
[02:21.85] Honeymooned in Rome
[02:27.23] As pigeons flew one afternoon
[02:33.46] I found myself alone
[02:38.75] Pining for youth, avoiding the truth
[02:44.77] Seven girls ago
[02:50.45] Well I was lost, hit the wall
[02:53.75] Desperate nights of alcohol
[02:56.62] Wondering what I should do
[03:01.78] Another year, another love
[03:04.95] Never answered
[03:07.62] Then at last there was you
[03:12.96] Time was turning back again
[03:18.14] Just one girl ago
[03:23.34] The soft impression of your eyes
[03:29.63] My favorite first hello
[03:34.23] Now these are days of serenades
[03:40.83] Whispered sweet and slow
[03:46.88] Believing in love just like it was
[03:52.55] Twenty girls ago
[03:58.17] Believing in love just like it was
[04:04.15] Twenty girls ago
[04:10.45]
