Mandolin Orange - There Was A Time Lyrics

If I showed up to your wedding
Wearing black and blue and red
Wouldn't it seem fitting
Cause I'm as bruised and angry as I've ever been

There was a time when I called you
There was a time when I called you mine

This old house is cold and empty
Even these old walls have been
I laid down, you're not with me
Waking up just seems a sin

There was a time when I called you
There was a time when I called you mine

There's no gold on either side of the Mississippi
No silver left in this world to find
Precious metal and precious memories
Slip away, slip away from your finger and your mind

There was a time when I called you
There was a time when I called you mine
