Broken glass and cigarettes
Writin´ 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 sleepin´
In another women´s bed
Or the doctor´s or the lawyer´s
Or the stranger that she met
If there´s nothin´ 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)
It was a long time for me
(It was a long time)
It´d be a long time for anyone but
(It was a long time)
Looks like it´s meant to be
Social class and registers
Cocaine in the hall
All the way from California
On the way to your next call
To those non-negotiations
To stimulate a cause
For the betterment of evils
And your ways around the laws
That keep you up and sitting pretty
On a pedestal or bed
And now you´re sleeping like an angel
Near the man who you give head
If there´s somethin´ 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 a long time)
It was the wrong time for me
(It was a long time)
It was the wrong time for anyone but
(It was a long time)
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 callin´ you
But I don´t want to know it now
Cause knowin´ you
It won´t change a damn thing
But there was a time
Yeah there was a time
Didn´t want ta know it all...
Didn´t wanna know it all...
N´ I don´t wanna know it now
Yeah there was a time
Didn´t want ta know it all...
Didn´t wanna know it all...
N´ I don´t wanna know it now
Oh
Oh 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...
Yeah, there was a time
Didn´t want ta know it all...
Didn´t wanna know it all...
Ooh...
N´ I don´t wanna know it now
I would do...
Didn´t want to know at all...
Anything for you
Didn´t wanna know at all...
N´ I don´t wanna know it now
There was a time...
