There Was a Time

From time to time...


Lyrics:
There was a time when I'd love you forever
There was a time I thought I knew what love was
There was a storm before this clear weather
A time when I was diminished by us
There were sweet words whispered from your lips of deceit
A game you played in which you thought you could cheat

And there was comfort that I found in your arms as they rocked me to sleep
There were sparks in our kisses and promises I thought you'd always keep
I love yous, alibis, tears on your shoulder
Broken hearts, broken promises, lies that grew bolder
And there was a girl who would trust you with her world and willingly believe a lie
There was something deceptively beautiful between you and I

There was a time when I doubted all but still believed in you
There was a time when you spoke some harsh words, made mistakes you could not undo
There was dancing, laughing, and sweet reminiscing
Concerns that I had you did your best of dismissing
There were some moments you swept me away
By an ocean of emotions that caused me to stay

And there was comfort that I found in your arms as they rocked me to sleep
There were sparks in our kisses and promises I thought you'd always keep
I love yous, alibis, tears on your shoulder
Broken hearts, broken promises, lies that grew bolder
And there was a girl who would trust you with her world and willingly believe a lie
There was something deceptively beautiful between you and I

But there was another girl
Who found the same comfort
Who heard the same words
And believed the same stories
And there was another world
Because I fell short
'cause you were a coward
Just searching for glory
In someone else
Only thought of yourself




And there was a comfort I found in my solitude as I drifted off into sleep
The sparks in your kisses were gone and there were promises you you never intended to keep
I cried on my own and gave you the cold shoulder
Fixed my own broken heart, grew wiser, grew older
And there was a girl who would not speak to you regardless of how hard you tried
There was something genuinely beautiful in my goodbye

There was a time when I'd love you forever
There was a time I thought I knew what love was
