Lyrics

There were times we had it all There were times we had it all When the sky is falling And you're looking round for somewhere to hide Did you ever call out to someone? Did you ever call out to me? I've never been gone, I've been right here by your side There ain't nothing but clouds There ain't nothing but clouds in your eyes Why don't you believe me when you finally found the truth? You've been drinking poison water from the fountain of youth Why don't you stop tearing up everyone you need the most? You're so busy trying to get even You never even try to get close I can't explain it away It doesn't make any sense To know what it's like I guess you've gotta' go through it I guess you've gotta' go through it I guess you've gotta' go through it It doesn't matter baby Loving you's a dirty job But somebody's gotta' do it There were times when we'd never fake it There were times when we'd always make it There were times when we'd take it to the limit And we'd never, never, ever leave each other alone We were flesh and blood and bone There were times we had it all There were times we had it all There were times when we took our chances There were times we were damn good dancers There were times when we had all the answers In the beating of the drummer & the riches of the rock & the roll I can see right through your soul There were times we had it all There were times we had it all If your fears can only be forgotten We can pull all the barriers down Would you folow your dreams desire? Would you follow your secret dreams & forbidden fire? Let's just peel out of this town It's been nothing but dreams It's been nothing but dreams until now You're never gonna' see it You've got your head stuck in the sand It's the land of the free and easy streets It's the home of the damned You're never gonna' see it You better open up your eyes You're the only one who's left Who's gonna' believe all your lies I can't explain it away It doesn't make any sense To know what it's like I guess you've gotta' go through it I guess you've gotta' go through it I guess you've gotta' go through it It doesn't matter baby Loving you's a dirty job But somebody's gotta' do it There were times when our bodies glistened There were times that we can't stop missing There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen To the pounding, pounding, of our desperate hearts Nothing could have torn us apart There were times we had it all There were times we had it all There were times when we faught like tigers There were times we were damn good liars There were times we extinguished every fire That was burning, burning, burning up each other alive From the heavens all down to the dives There were times we had it all There were times we had it all There were times when we faught like tigers There were times we were damn good liars There were times when our bodies glistened There were times that we can't stop missing There were times that we'd lay in bed and listen To the pounding, pounding of our desperate hearts Nothing could have torn us apart There were times we had it all There were times we had it... All
