lyrics

Moments we had were golden
Time was precious in our hands
Now all the change left in my pockets
Couldn't pay you to bring you here where I am

Sometimes I miss how it was back then
Everything was, everything was sacred, you said

We sang when we felt like giving up
We sang about coming home
We sang about the troubles of being young
About a city you said that we owned

Oh, well I still believe everything you said
Everything was, everything was sacred back then

I understand if you didn't have the time of your life
But I hope it wasn't a waste of time
(Maybe it was pointless)
(Maybe we were wrong)

Too proud to say if you were held hostage
Maybe you panicked under the gun
Were you scared you'd never get quite what you wanted?
Made you wanna drive away from everything that we'd done?

Oh, well I still believe everything you said
Everything was, everything was sacred back then

Well I understand if you didn't have the time of your life
But I hope it wasn't a waste of your time
Oh....
(Ba da da ba, ba da da ba ba, ba ba ba...)
Oh....

I should've known it was gonna fall apart all along
But though you're not here, you're never really gone
Gone, gone...

Well I understand if you didn't have the time of your life
But I hope it wasn't a waste of your time
I understand if you think we were just wasting our time
But just so you know, it was the time of my life
(Maybe it was pointless)
But it was the time of my life...
(Maybe we were wrong)
But it was the time of my life...

"Alternative and folky, Candace Griffin's music comes straight from the heart. As a songwriter, she takes inspiration from the life around her, and with honest words and acoustic-driven emotions, she puts her listeners right in the moment. You'll think the songs were written just for you." (Bio by Caitlin Wildhagen) ... more
