Christine Sixty

Just a little something that I’ve been working on for the last five years.

“Christine Sixty”

(A sequel inspired by the story of a girl who used to be sixteen)

Verse 1

I saw her walkin’ down the avenue today

Silver in her hair where the sunlight used to play

Lines around the eyes where the laughter used to stay

Time kept rollin’, it never looked away

She used to turn every head in the room

High heels clickin’ like a teenage boom

Now she moves a little slower down the street

But there’s still a rhythm in her heartbeat

Pre-Chorus

The mirror tells the truth she can’t deny

But there’s still fire burnin’ in her eyes

Chorus

Christine sixty, where did the years all go?

From summer nights to winter snow

Christine sixty, life wrote every line

But the rebel heart still beats in time

Verse 2

Old photographs in a cardboard frame

Lipstick smiles and a different name

Records spinning in a smoky room

Every night felt like it ended too soon

Boys with guitars and a wild parade

Promises that time would slowly fade

Some got lost and some moved on

But the song inside her never really gone

Pre-Chorus

She laughs about the days gone by

Still got that spark she can’t disguise

Chorus

Christine sixty, where did the years all go?

From neon lights to a softer glow

Christine sixty, the world may change the scene

But somewhere lives that restless teen

Bridge

Yeah the clock kept tickin’, seasons turned

Lessons lived and lessons learned

But a heart like hers don’t fade away

It just finds a different song to play

Final Chorus

Christine sixty, standin’ tall tonight

Silver hair in the city lights

Christine sixty, time can take its fee

But it can’t steal who you used to be

Christine sixty… still a little sixteen in her dreams.
