It Was You Songtext
von Peter Katz

It′s a holiday today
Spent the morning sleeping in
Read the whole newspaper
Can't remember last time I did
So quiet in this house
Gone the rush there used to be
Not that all the noise really ever bothered me
I was somewhere in the mix
Had my place there in the race
Love in my heart and on my face

Had my home, through and through
Had my work, always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my life, it was you


There′s this question in my head
Ringing louder every day
What am I still doing here anyway?
I don't feel sorry for myself
Just think my time has come
I had my glory days and now they're done
I wanna lay down in the pages of our photographs
Where I was there beside you, man
You made me laugh

Had my home, through and through
Had my work, always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my life, it was you

And I′d do it all again
Send my heart back fifty years
Though I knew one day
Time would send me right back here
Without you, my standing stone
My ringer in the fight
I could go a hundred rounds
With you there in my sight
But now the bell has rung

And everyone went home
Well, I was left to watch you fade to skin and bone
I know you had to go
Your number called too many times

Just wish I could have been beside you in that line


Had my home, through and through
Had my work, always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my life, it was you
Had my life, it was you
Had my life
