The Times We've Known

The Times We've Known The times we've known are slipping by Like vapour trails across the sky The best of times, the worst of times Have come and gone The years of debt, the years of doubt The years of 'what's it all about?' Of holding fast, and holding out And holding on When life was hard and chances few Still I was rich just having you Though people said we won't go far We went ahead and here we are Together still through everything Together still remembering The times we've known Sometimes the years were lush and green Sometimes we lived on hope alone A little bit of both have been The times we've known Some lucky flings, some rotten breaks Some funny things, a few mistakes The dreams that every dreamer takes And makes his own The time to laugh, a time to cry A time to let the world go by And if there were some tears to pay No one can take those years away On fragile wings our days have flown Still we have things to call our own The times we've known The times we've known The times we've known
