Guns N' Roses — There Was a Time

[Verse 1] Broken glass and cigarettes writin' on the wall It was a bargain for the summer and I thought I had it all I was the one who gave you everythin', the one who took the fall You were the one who would do anythin', one who can't recall Where she was while she was sleepin' in another woman's bed Or the doctor's, or the lawyer's, or a stranger that she met If there's nothin' I can gain from this or anythin' at all It'd be the knowledge that you gave me when I thought I'd heard it all [Chorus] It was a long time for you It was a long time for me It'd be a long time for anyone but Looks like it's meant to be [Verse 2] Social class and registers, cocaine in the hall All the way from California on the way to your next call To those non-negotiations to simulate a cause For the betterment of evils and your ways around the laws That keep you up and sittin' pretty on a pedestal or bed An' now you're sleepin' like an angel, never mind who you gave head If there's somethin' I can make of this or anything at all It'd be the devil hates a loser and you thought you had it all [Chorus] It was a wrong time for you It was a wrong time for me It was the wrong time for anyone, but Looks like I got to see for myself [Bridge] If I could go back in time to the place in my soul There, all alone, lonely teardrops, ooh, are calling you But I don't want to know it, now, 'cause knowing you It won't change a damn thing, but there was a time [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Yeah, there was a time, I didn't wanna know, at all Didn't wanna know, at all, and I don't wanna know it, now Yeah, there was a time, I didn't wanna know, at all Didn't wanna know, at all, and I don't wanna know it, now I would do anything for you, there was a time I would do anything for you I would do anything for you, there was a time [Guitar Solo] [Outro] There was a time, I would do anything for you Ooh, I would do anything for you (Yeah, there was a time, I didn't wanna know, at all Didn't wanna know, at all, and I don't wanna know it, now) I would do anything for you (Didn't wanna know, at all Didn't wanna know, at all, and I don't wanna know it, now) There was a time, there was a time
