A Time That Has Passed

There was a time

Not all that long ago

When I would’ve given up anything

Just to see a smile upon your face

I would’ve done anything you asked

For a chance to win your favor

I’d have climbed the highest mountain

Or swam the farthest sea

If it meant I could be with you

For the rest of my days

And there was a time

When I’d have crossed the barren desert

Or snatched you the moon with the palm of my hand

If ever it might have won your love

And I’d have given my life for you

If that’s what it would’ve taken

All the while spending my final hours

Still professing my love to you

Pouring out my heart and soul

Oh there was a time

A time I might’ve done anything

Anything at all just for you

But my how that time has passed
