There Was A Time

Broken glass and 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
Where she was while she was sleeping
In another woman's bed
Or the doctors or the lawyers
Or a stranger that she met
If there's nothing I can gain from this
Or anything at all
It'd be the knowledge that ya gave me
When I thought I had it all.

It was a long time with you
It was a long time with me
It'd be a long 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 non-negotiations
To simulate a call
All the bad of learning evils and your ways around the laws that keep you up and sitting pretty
On a pedestal of men
And now you're sleeping like an angel
Near the man who reaped it in.

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 a wrong time for you
It was a wrong time for me
It was the wrong time for everyone
But 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
Ooh,are calling you
But I don't wanna know it now
'Cause knowing you, it won't change a damn thing
But there was a time.

Yeah, there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all and
I don't wanna know it now.

Yeah, there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all and
I don't wanna know it now.

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

There was a time
Oh, I would do anything for you
Oh, I would do anything for you...
Yeah there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all
And I don't wanna know it now
I would do anything for you
There was a time...was a time.
