There Has Been a Time

On a day like today when my eyes looked far away
And when all you say is wrong
I just need a place to hide away and face
Those feelings coming on so strong

Let me be alone, let me be alone
And don't you try to understand
Let me have the pain, let me have the pain
Let me have it, it might help me to decide
How to tell you something I can no longer hide

There has been a time, there has been a time
Now I call it good old yesterday
There has been a time, there has been a time
I found all around me black or white in a way

Nothing inbetween
Black was black as night as far as I know
Nothing inbetween
White was even whiter then the wintersnow

Have a look inside my mind
Only doubts are there to find
No more yes or no's like then

I knew it all so wel
'Bout love and god and hell you know
I felt like a grown up man

Now I see the rain, now I see the rain
Through the shining of the sun
Now I feel the pain, now I feel the pain
Now I feel the pain of losing what I had
My love for you has gone
My love for you is dead

There has been a time, there has been a time
Now I call it good old yesterday
There has been a time, there has been a time
Now I call it good old yesterday

There has been a time, there has been a time
I found all around me black or white in a way
