Time Was... - Wishbone Ash

I’ve got to rearrange my life

I’ve got to rearrange my world

I miss you, I need you

I’ve got to keep my memories aside

I’ve got to try to live again

Time was when there were things around to be afraid of

I’ve got cause, I couldn’t change my mind to turn the tables

Time was there was no need to stop and rearrange it

Now I’ve got a memory and I don’t want to change it

And there’s a time for waking up and feeling down

It’s when you have to pick your feet up from the ground

Time was when I had you around — I was a strong man

I need you to help me make a change and be a new man

Takes more than a day and a night for giving

It’s not so easy to just change your way of living

Time was when there were things around to bother me

The crime was I couldn’t start to change my history
