lyrics

THERE WAS A TIME
(m.peaker)

there was a time when i was young
there was a time when i was free
there was a time i had fun playing in the water
there was a time when i was me

but now those days are gone
and now those days have left me
and now those days are drowned in the ocean
in some place called memory

there was a time when i could love
there was a time when she loved me
there was a time in the sun we’d swim in the river
there was a time when i could be

the sun is rising
out from under the horizon
a fire is rising from the sea
