Lyrics

There Was a Time
©Jeffrey C. Ashbaker 1-2015

I hear the thunder, I feel the wind
Torn asunder, together again
Heal the pain as I'm drifting away
On a stream of love through a firestorm in the haze

A new beginning, another fresh start
I sense forgiveness in this tattered old heart
And it made a difference, just to know you were there
Put away your sadness, keep the laughter, that we shared

--- Chorus ---
Oh Yeah, There was a time
Oh yeah, just yours and mine
Oh yeah, there was a time
There was a time
-----------------

I sat a tractor, I drove a truck
I dug four treasures and lost just as much
I saw a mountain and brought it to me
I was a blind man, now the blind man, can see

It may have seemed like, I wasn't concerned
But I left a path around the, bridges I burned
I know you saw it, I was sure that you knew
In spite of the squabbles, I always loved you

-Repeat Chorus-

A well done folk song. Good lyrics and delivered well! Very enjoyable.

Nice! Kinda dark but with a sweeping rhythm!

A country/folk song that is just right in every way. The vocals and guitar work keep this thing traditional, and they are both done quite well indeed! This one keeps you listening in to every word and humming the along the first go'round. Nice piece for sure.
