Forty Times lyrics

[Verse 1]
Many years of time
That I have run around my mind
And run into
A blind alley

[Verse 2]
Yes, I rode a horse of red
Down through the valleys of my head
I did not get
Out of the saddle

[Verse 3]
I clung to a bird of green
And rested in the in-between
I saw the mountain
And how to get there

[Chorus]
Baby, now
I wanna get from behind this cloud
I'm tired of pushin'

[Bridge]
Shaded valleys in the summertime (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
A warm fireplace in the fall (In the fall)
That's were I'm goin'
And I want you to be by my side
That's all, that's all
[Verse 4]
Many is the place
That I have run a ragged race
And I have lost
But I won also

[Verse 5]
And more and more I see
The sparkling tinsel on the tree
Is less attractive
Than the pine needles

[Verse 6]
And everybody in this a-whole wide world is free
If they would only let themselves be
As I wish I could
And I will someday

[Chorus]
Baby, now
I wanna get from behind this cloud
I'm tired of pushin'

[Outro]
I'm tired of pushin'
I want some kinda cushion
Put-put-put-pushin'
I want some kinda cushion
Put-put-put-put, put-put-put-pushin'
I want some kinda cushion
Put-put-put-pushin'
