Tom T. Hall - I’m Forty Now lyrics

[Tom T. Hall - I’m Forty Now lyrics]

There were barefoot dreams
Of catching outlaws there were school dreams
Of catching footballs
There were young dreams of
Finding great romance
There were armies and I took the chance
There were avenues of glory
And some deep despair
That put subtle shapes of silver in my hair

Well I'm forty now and I'm a man
But I can't resist the urge to
Put dreams in my plans
So many hopeless dreams and I broke some vows
Maybe life begins for me, I'm forty now

There were summer nights and
There were good days
Life was water and I made waves
Oh I was crazy then so I made some breaks
Maybe God can look the other way


Either good outweighs the bad or
We forget the bad i'm thankful for a few
Friends that I've had

'Cause I'm forty now and I'm a man
But I can't resist the urge to
Put dreams in my plans
So many hopeless dreams and I broke some vows
Maybe life begins for me, I'm forty now
Well I'm forty now
