There Was a Time Songtext
von Mandolin Orange

If I showed up to your wedding
Wearing black and blue and red
Wouldn′t it seem fitting
Cause I'm as bruised and angry as I′ve ever been.

There was a time when I called you,
There was a time when I called you mine.


This old house is cold and empty
Even these old walls have been.
I laid down.
You're not with me.
Waking up just seems a sin.

There was a time when I called you,
There was a time when I called you mine.

There's no gold on either side of the Mississippi,
No silver left in this world to find.
Precious metal and precious memories
Slip away, slip away from your finger and your mind.

There was a time when I called you,
There was a time when I called you mine.
