Lyrics

There Was A Time

Broken glass and cigarettes
Writin' on the wall
It was a bargain for the summer an' I thought I had it all
I was the one who gave you everything
The one who took the fall
You were the one who would do anything
One who can't recall
Where she was while she was sleepin'
In another women's bed
Or the doctor's or the lawyer's or the stranger that she met
If there's nothin' I can gain from this
Or anything at all
It'd be the knowledge that you gave me
When I thought I'd heard it all

It was a long time for you
It was a long time for me
It'd be a long time for anyone but
Looks like it's meant to be

Social class and registers
Cocaine in the hall
All the way from California on the way to your next call
To those non-negotiations
To stimulate a cause
For the betterment of evils and your ways around the laws
That keep you up and sitting pretty
On a pedestal or bed
And now you're sleepin' like an angel
Never mind who you gave head
If there's somethin' I can make of this
Or anything at all
It'd be the devil hates a loser
And you thought you had it all

It was a wrong time for you
It was a wrong time for me
It was a wrong time for everyone but
Looks like I got to see for myself

If I could go back in time to the place in my soul
There all alone
Lonely teardrops ooh, are callin' you
But I don't want to know it now
'Cause knowin' you, it won't change a damn thing
But there was a time

Yeah, there was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't wanna know at all
N' I don't wanna know it now
Yeah, there was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't wanna know at all
N' I don't wanna know it now

Oh I would do anything for you
There was a time
I would do anything for you
I would do anything for you
There was a time

There was a time
I would do anything for you
Yeah, there was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't wanna know at all
N' I don't wanna know it now
I would do anything for you (didn't want to know at all)
Didn't wanna know at all
N' I don't wanna know it now
(There was a time)
(There was a time)
