There Was A Time (TWAT)

Broken glass, cigarettes, writing on the wall
It was a bargain for the summer
And 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
The one who can't recall
As you watched while he was sleeping
in another woman's bed
Call the doctors, call the lawyers,
call the stranger that you met
If there's nothing 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 beyond that stall
To those mock negotiations
To simulate a call
All the bad among the evils
And your ways around the laws
That'd keep you up and sitting pretty
On a pedestal of fear
And now you're sleeping like an angel

If there's something 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 the wrong time for you
It was the wrong time for me
It was the wrong time for anyone
But it looks like I'm about to see for myself

If I could go back in time to the place in my soul
There all alone, lonely tear drops

But I don't want to know it now
Cuz knowing you it won't change a damn thing

But there was a time

[solo]

There was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't want to know at all
Don't want to know it now

There was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't want to know at all
Don't want to know it now

I would do anything for you
There was a time

I would do anything for you
There was a time

I would do anything for you
There was a time

[solo]

There was a time
I would do anything for you

There was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't want to know at all
Don't want to know it now

There was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't want to know at all
Don't want to know it now

There was a time
Didn't want to know at all
Didn't want to know at all
Don't want to know it now
