We’d softly whisper our hopes and our wishes But that was a happier time. You used to laugh as we ran hand in hand Down by the creek when it rained. That was a time we believed in forever But now only time has remained. [Chorus] I’ve got nothing but time here on my mind, Time that I once spent with you, And the tears that I cry will never run dry After what you put me through. I just wasn’t prepared for you to get scared And run off and leave me behind. Now when I think of the past, sometimes I just laugh, And tell myself, there was a time. [Verse 2] There was a time when you told me you loved me And I said that I loved you, too. The way that you smiled when I looked in your eyes Made me believe it was true. The love that we shared we thought was so special, The kind you find only in dreams, But who could have known it would end so abruptly And just fall apart at the seams? [Chorus] I’ve got nothing but time here on my mind, Time that I once spent with you, And the tears that I cry will never run dry After what you put me through. I just wasn’t prepared for you to get scared And run off and leave me behind. Now when I think of the past, sometimes I just laugh, And tell myself, there was a time. [Verse 3] Everyone thought that we’d end up together, But they don’t think that anymore. The heart I once gave you is broken in pieces And scattered about on the floor. We used to promise that we’d love each other Right up to the day we should die. The worst part of all is that I’ve kept my promise, Even though you said goodbye. [Chorus] I’ve got nothing but time here on my mind, Time that I once spent with you, And the tears that I cry will never run dry After what you put me through. I just wasn’t prepared for you to get scared And run off and leave me behind. Now when I think of the past, sometimes I just laugh, And tell myself, there was a time.
