There was a perfect time for us, it seems so long ago
|
We were so naA?ve about the things we both should know
|
The best intentions come to nil when love has lost desire
|
And slowly years will show the dying embers of a fire
|
|
There was a time when I loved you
|
And a time when I lied
|
I put none up above you
|
And I tried, yes I tried
|
I'd stand aside, so you could be free
|
But all of the time I was running from me,
|
I'd lay down my life, if you'd asked that of me,
|
Yeah, there was a time
|
|
To look at all the years gone by, I made mistakes it's true
|
It's always just the little things remind me of you
|
All too often, I will sit, and wonder where I've been
|
For every time I look at you, I'll know you're thinking of him
|
|
There was a time I respected you,
|
There were times when I cried
|
When I was expected to, I would stand at your side
|
And you ask me would I do it again,
|
I would tell you the truth, look you straight in your eyes
|
And I'd say it though most would think me insane
|
I'd say it although I have nothing to gain
|
Yeah, There was a time
|
There will come a time for you
|
|
There was a time when I loved you
|
And a time when I lied
|
There were none up above you
|
And for you, I'd have died
|
But the big wheel turns at last
|
When all my emotions were tied up with you
|
My hopes and my dreams could never win through
|
The path has been cleared, now I'm free of you
|
Yeah, now is my time
|
|
There will come a time for you
|
