โThe Pull of Forty Yearsโ
Contemporary Christian ยท FreeCustomSong Original
It was over forty years ago
When the roots of this bond started to grow
The world spun around and pulled us apart
But you left a compass right in my heart
Edward, the seasons come and they go
But there is a current beneath the flow
ChorusSomething keeps bringing us back together
Through the distance and the changing weather
It's the true love you've always shown to me
The deepest kind of loyalty
When all the dust settles and the day is done
Edward, you will always be my number one
Verse 2I look at the paths that we had to take
The quiet moments and the choices we make
But every time I needed a guiding light
You'd suddenly step right out of the night
You offer a love that is honest and true
There is no friend in the world quite like you
ChorusSomething keeps bringing us back together
Through the distance and the changing weather
It's the true love you've always shown to me
The deepest kind of loyalty
When all the dust settles and the day is done
Edward, you will always be my number one
BridgeOver four decades of winding roads
Through the highs and the heavy loads
I don't know how the universe knew
To keep my spirit tied right to you
It's an invisible thread that never unties
A beautiful constant as the time flies
Final Chorus'Cause something keeps bringing us back together
Through the distance and the changing weather
It's the true love you've always shown to me
The deepest kind of loyalty
When all the dust settles beneath the sun
Edward, you will always be my number one
Forever and always, my number one
