She Was Great Songtext / Lyric

A lot of tears a lot of hate there it goes all the magic

But that's alright

And it's her on the phone

Pretending everything is just tragic

It's just tragic

I've been counting the years

Trying to fake my way all around it

And get along



But she was great when she was great

She was great when she was great



I remember the kick

1956 was just magic

And came undone

Watch him yearning for the throne

Back in '69 with a habit

But that's alright (that's alright)






'cause she was great when he was great

'cause he was great when he was great

'cause she was great when he was great

'cause he was great when he was great



But then again you got me wrong

'cause you don't have to worry

What's on my mind

I've been staring at the clock

Waiting to be part of the magic

Yeah it's magic

I guess at least I got a place to be (what?)

In between a shot and a dream



But we were great when we were great

But we were great when we were great

She was great when she was great

And he was great when he was great

(Come on come on come on)
