The Time Was Ours

from Song​-​A​-​Day by Bill White

/

lyrics

I should have held onto that ten dollar guitar
Its worth ten thousad bucks today
Just of many vanluable things
That I threw away

The time was ours What did we do with it?
Watched it pass on clocks in school
Watched it pass in cubicles
As it slipped into the dark from the dawn
We watched it pass till it was gone

How did you pile up so much money
Working two bit jobs
Were you a stockmarket speculator
Or just a sleazy, crooked slob?

The time was ours What did we do with it?
Watched it pass on clocks in school
Watched it pass in cubicles
As it slipped into the dark from the dawn
We watched it pass till it was gone

The last valuable thing of mine
I let go without a fight
Had we held on for one more night
The world might have been ours tonight

The time was ours What did we do with it?
Watched it pass on clocks in school
Watched it pass in cubicles
As it slipped into the dark from the dawn
We watched it pass till it was gone
