El Maxicano - Twenty Years Ago
(words and music by Maxim S. Calda)

Twenty years ago
We just didn't know
We went separate ways
And we never met in days

Just too young to know
And much too busy to grow
Tried to break away
From these grounds of clay

Chorus:
They say you can't miss what you don't know
I never knew it was you, twenty years ago

You're a flaming star
A travelling light from very far
And now I finally see
It's shining out for me

You've been part of my past
And now I want it to last
So all I ask of you
Is to be become my future too

Chorus:
They say you can't miss what you don't know
I never knew it was you, twenty years ago

Bridge:
I just feel the sun around you
That's why it's always cold without you
I was half a man without you
Twenty years before I found you

And from today
There's plenty more years to go
