There were good times
I still remember when I made you smile
When life was easy
We'd coexist in a comfortable style
And there were feelings
I was inclined to believe they would never fade
It's so funny
How things don't always work that way
There was something in the air
Maybe it was magic
And there was something in your voice
When you used to call my name
And there are moments in my life
That I can still remember
And there are places in my heart
That I cannot forget
And there was music
We danced in the sunlight and glittered like gold
Life was free then
With time on our side we would never grow old
And there were feelings
Burning with fire in the heat of a summer night
And there were sweet dreams
When once upon a time was just rightSometimes I'm dirty, sometimes I'm clean
Sometime I talk in circles so I don't know what I mean
Although I am uncertain, one thing seems clear
I don't know very much, but I'm still glad to be here
Because I've got a conscience and he's got the same name
When it goes badly he gets the blame
When it goes good I get the acclaim
When I get hit he feels the pain
Weren't you before me or were in the past
You'll have to excuse me, I didn't think that this was going to last
Well, I heard the road that spirals down
Has been paved with the best intentions that can be found
I've got a conscience and he's got a name
When it goes badly he gets the blame
When it goes good I get the acclaim
When I get hit he feels the pain
