We Had It Made
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You never used to mind
When I left the top of the toothpaste
It’s a shame those days are gone
And it never used to bother you
When I left the TV on
Well it’s a shame those days are gone
I miss your old perfume
And the way that you used to smile
Well it’s a shame those days are gone
It just seems like the other day
We got to watch TV and not pay
We had it made in the shade of old places
Memories fade and it’s hard to face it
And borrowed times now laughing in our faces
Taking our the time, messin’ with our minds
And it still feels like a mystery
Like an old forgotten song
Well it’s a shame those days are gone
I try to get through the day
Without thinking of the past
Well it’s a shame those days are gone
It just seems like the other day
I think we’re gonna make it even if we have to pay
We had it made in the shade of old places
Memories fade and it’s hard to face it
And borrowed times now laughing in our faces
Taking all our time, messin’ with our minds
Taking all our time, messin’ with our minds
