You Were Great, How Was I? Songtext / Lyric

(J. Farrar/T. Snow)



I'll never learn

I cling to the past

I find so much there to lean on

But when I get lucky

I can even forget

Our now and forevers are gone



I know what you mean

I go there myself

When I feel the mood coming on

It comes on so easy

It's hard to believe

Our now and forevers are gone






When did we lose our starry eyes

The feeling's too strong to compromise

Something went wrong between hello and goodbye

Now it's too late

Love you were great, how was I?



I'm doing my best with somebody else

It's good to feel counted upon

It keeps me from sliding to where I forget

Our now and forevers are gone



When did we lose our starry eyes

The feeling's too strong to compromise

Something went wrong between hello and goodbye

Now it's too late

Love you were great, how was I?



Tell me now, Tell me now, Tell me now

Oh now it's too late

Love you were great, how was I?



Love you were great, great, how was I?
