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

One who can't recall

Where she was while she was sleeping

In another's women's bed

Or the doctors or the lawyers

Or the stranger that she met

If there's nothing that 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 non-negotiations

To simulate a call

While the battle of medievals

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

Never mind who you gave head

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 everyone

But it looks like I'm 'bout to see for myself

If I could go back in time to the place in my soul

There all alone

Lonely teardrops, ooh, are calling you

But I don't want to 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 want to know it all

Didn't want to know it all

And I don't wanna know it now

Yeah, there was a time

Didn't want to know it all

Didn't want to know it all

And I don't wanna know it now

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, ooh

There was a time

Didn't want to know it all

Didn't want to know it all

And I don't wanna know it now

There was a time [(I was there for you)]

Didn't want to know it all

Didn't want to know it all

And I don't wanna know it now
