Artist/Band: Guns N' Roses
Lyrics for Song: There Was a Time
Lyrics for Album: Chinese Democracy [2008]



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 a bed

And now you're sleeping like an angel

Never mind who gave you 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...

There was a time
