Tender Years Song Lyrics
Tender Years by Robert Forster I see her through the ages
She’s a book of a thousand pages
That you can’t thumb
Images of her are vivid
Her beauty has not withered
From her entrance in chapter one
I’m in a story with her
No, I can’t live without her
I can’t imagine one
I know it’s growing daily
Lately I see how far we’ve come
Memory is a servant
And I have been observant
There is a story to tell
Laughter was distorted
Wind came, plans were aborted
Love scenes arе at night
I’m in a story with her
No, I can’t live without her
I can’t imaginе one
Walking through salt and water
I see how far we’ve come
Time is important
Timing is more important
Without it a story can end
Heidelberg is a German city
By a river, very pretty
And it was there that timing was our friend
Come on
I’m in a story with her
No, I can’t live without her
I just can’t imagine one
I know it’s growing daily
Lately I see how far we’ve come
*Instrumental break*
Foreign names and places
These are the tender pages of short days and little sun
I remember carrying a baby
While you laid in bed waiting for another baby to come
I’m in a story with her
I know I can’t live without her
I just can’t imagine one
I know it’s growing daily
Lately I see how far we’ve come
I’m in a story with her
I know I can’t live without her
I just can’t imagine one
Walking through salt and water
I see how far we’ve come
See how far we’ve come
See how far we’ve come
