It Was a Good Time - Kelly Richey

I took the long road, I had my reasons —

Singing the same songs, pr-evoking treason.

I was born with a passion, and I knew my calling —

I’ve seen dreams lose their dreamers…

I’ve seen lovers keep falling for love.

Verse:

I was the one with poison, I was the one in trouble —

I was the one who needed, I felt sorry for ones not bleeding.

I felt every bump in the pavement, I have the scares to prove it —

I did not know where you’re going —

I just know that I blew you away.

Chorus:

It was a good time, we had much fun, in the sunshine and rain…

I found God there, I learned to swear,

and I’ll never… have to throw it away, again, and again…

have to throw it away, again, and again…

Verse:

I wish I could cry some days, I wish I could die sometimes —

I’ve wanted to kill some people, because I knew where they came from.

I carried signs and wore flowers, I stared in the mirror for hours,

I even voted for Jesus, when I was too young to vote so there, and there,

and there oh…

Chorus:

It was a good time, we had much fun, in the sunshine and rain…

I found God there, I learned to swear,

and I’ll never… have to throw it away, again, and again…

have to throw it away, again, and again…

Verse:

I took some wrong roads, I skipped on the highways —

Waving my peace signs, flipped on some days.

I’ve swallowed my anger, as I choked on my problems,

I’ve tried helping losers, thank God I’m not lost anymore…

anymore… anymore…

Chorus:

It was a good time, we had much fun, in the sunshine and rain…

I found God there, I learned to swear,

and I’ll never… have to throw it away, again, and again…

have to throw it away, again, and again…
