THERE WAS A TIME

There was a time, not so long ago

I come home from work

Walking down that road

There was a time, it all seemed right

Mud on my boots, you on my mind

There was a time

There was a time in my life

In my children’s eyes, I walked a king’s mile

I stood so tall and I was their life

But in this room, breath of a man

With death on his side

Trembling hands

There was a time

There was a time in my life

When the train rolls through

Well I’d like to see

Another set of tracks

Rolling hills of green

Please pray for me, my darling dear

And I live my life, beyond my years

Worked all the time, gave all I have

A sinners dream, I’m without regrets

There was a time

There was a time in my life

There was a time
