We Were There Once

I just bought the new Roots
Whilst thinking of you
You don't quite get the cue
So I'll sing it to you through and through

Tell me life is wonderful
And maybe I'll string along
So all cards won't fall
And I can finally stand tall

If you were to ever grow cold

There's other things that I can do besides loving you
So I lent you my Badu hoping I'd pull through
But despite what you suggest
You're clearly unimpressed
Maybe I shouldn't stress

There's other things that I can do that ain't loving you
Do you ever dwell in that paradise too?
But as I've always done
At least I jumped the gun
Because we were there once

We were there once

I don't know what to do
Would you wail if I said this to you?
And you still don't quite get the cue
And I'll still sing it to you through and through

But if you were to ever grow cold

There's other things that I can do besides loving you (Oh other things)
So I lent you my Badu hoping I'd pull through (And so if I write of you?)
But despite what you suggest (I'll put it all to rest)
You're clearly unimpressed
Maybe I shouldn't stress (I shouldn't stress)

There's other things that I can do that ain't loving you
Do you ever dwell in that paradise too? (I'll no longer reside)
But as I've always done
At least I jumped the gun
Because we were there once

We were there once
