What Was Was Over
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.
Do I really wanna step in here?
I feel like my father at the horse track
When he's down to his last sawbuck
Do I really wanna step in here?
I'm not as sure as I appear
Tell me should we make this move?
And if it seems pathetic, pardon me
I'm not as sure as I appear
Thought it over, thought I'd walk over
And over coffee we could chat
But then, then I thought again
'Cause what was was over and now I know that
Thought I'd call, we could talk it over
I knew that wouldn't work out somehow
'Cause what was was over and I should just get over
And that is where I'm at right now
I'm really glad that you are here
What could be could beat what was
We are is at any rate
Yeah, I'm really glad that you are here
Thought it over, thought I'd walk over
And over coffee may we chat
But then, then I thought again
'Cause what was was over, now I know that
Thought I'd call, we could talk it over
I knew that wouldn't work somehow
'Cause what was was over and I should just get over
And that is where I'm at right now
And we are is because what was is now was
Pray for rain, it never does and after all
That we've done been through is, is gonna have to do
And we are is because what was is now was
Pray for rain, it never does and after all
We've been through is, is gonna have to do
