That Was Then Paroles

And everything we did was wonderful
Now its practical and I don't know how

All the moves we made were done for love
Now its not enough it seems somehow

And all the feeling that I knew would last
Well they are gone where are they now

And you were beautiful and dangerous
And now you've sacrificed some sacred cow

And I would listen to the things you said
They all made sense why don't they now

Not a penny in our pockets then
We never worried so why do we now

Standing tall against my destiny
Oh I had visions and I could see This is now

Over decades things are changing me
I have no energy where am I now

Too many people seem in need of me
When I was younger I felt so free

Can you see the things I care about
They are not important now time has run out

And only memories are left with me
This shallow history becomes my destiny

I would lie awake and cry all night
That was then this is now
This is now
