[Verse]
In the days when I was young
Never thought I’d need anyone
I lived my life for myself
I loved the freedom that I felt
[Verse]
And then one day I saw you there
With your blue eyes and auburn hair
I walked right up and said hello
I wish I would’ve let you go
[Verse]
Six months later we were wed
We were both in over our head
Next thing I knew you were gone
I should’ve just left you alone
[Chorus]
There was a time when you were mine
There was a time when you said goodbye
There was a time that I made you laugh
There was a time that I made you cry
There was a time when we both loved
There was a time when we both lost
There was a time that I’d take the risk
There was a time that I’d learn the cost
Before and after you were mine…
There was a time
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
You moved in and I broke your heart
I should’ve seen right from the start
There’s no way that we would last
I just couldn’t give up my past
[Verse]
I really fell in love with you
I hope you know that much is true
My wild side couldn’t be tamed
In the end I’m the one to blame
[Verse
You deserved far better than me
I’m so sorry and hope you can see
Because I loved you I let you go
That’s one thing that I hope you know
[Chorus]
There was a time when you were mine
There was a time when you said goodbye
There was a time that I made you laugh
There was a time that I made you cry
There was a time when we both loved
There was a time when we both lost
There was a time that I’d take the risk
There was a time that I’d learn the cost
Before and after you were mine…
There was a time
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
Maybe we were meant to be
It didn’t last because of me
I’m so sorry that I hurt you
That’s the last thing I’d want to do
That day you packed and moved on
I knew my happiness was gone
You’re the only part of life I miss
But I know it was all for the best
[Chorus]
There was a time when you were mine
There was a time when you said goodbye
There was a time that I made you laugh
There was a time that I made you cry
There was a time when we both loved
There was a time when we both lost
There was a time that I’d take the risk
There was a time that I’d learn the cost
Before and after you were mine…
There was a time
[Final Chorus]
There was a time when you were mine
There was a time when you said goodbye
There was a time that I made you laugh
There was a time that I made you cry
There was a time when we both loved
There was a time when we both lost
There was a time that I’d take the risk
There was a time that I’d learn the cost
Before and after you were mine…
There was a time
