Broken glass and cigarettes
Writing 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 sleeping
In another woman's bed
Or the doctor's, or the lawyer's
Or a stranger that she met
If there's nothing I can gain from this
Or anything at all
It'd be the lovin' 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 simulate a cause
For the betterment of evils (for the betterment of evils)
And your ways around the laws
That keep you up and sitting pretty
On a pedestal or bed
And now you're sleeping like an angel
Never mind who you gave head
If there's something I can make of this
Or anything at all
It'd be the devil hates a loser
And you thought you had it all
[Chorus]
It was a wrong time for you
(It was the wrong time)
It was a wrong time for me
(It was the wrong time)
It was the wrong time for anyone, but
(It was the wrong time)
Looks like I've got to see for myself
If I could go back in time to the place in my soul
There, all alone
Lonely teardrops, ooh
Are calling you
But I don't want to know it, now
'Cause knowing you
It won't change a damn thing
But there was a time...
Yeah, there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all
I don't wanna know it, now
Yeah, there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all
I don't wanna know it, now
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
Yeah, there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all
I don't wanna know it, now
Yeah, there was a time
Didn't wanna know it all
Didn't wanna know it all
I don't wanna know it, now
