Lyrics 4 + 20 - Stephen Stills

4 + 20

4+20 years ago\nI come into this life\nThe song of a woman\nAnd a man who lived in strife\nHe was tired of being poor\nAnd he wasn’t into selling door to door\nAnd he worked like the devil to be more\nA different kind of poverty now upsets my soul\nNight after sleepless night\nI walk the floor and I want to know\nWhy am I so alone?\nWhere is my woman can I bring her home?\nHave I driven her away?\nIs she gone?\nMorning comes to sunrise\nAnd I’m driven to my bed\nI see that it is empty\nAnd there’s devils in my head\nI embrace the many colored beast\nI grow weary of the torment\nCan there be no peace?\nAnd I find myself just wishing that my life would soon decease.
