Lyrics There Was A Time - ALO

There Was A Time

The streets and the buildings
That did not exist
The first to arrive
Named what they saw
The next to arrive
Claimed it for their gods
There was a time
Where you and I moved like spirits in the sky
There was a time
And there will come a time again
The spot where we’re standing
Was once long ago (?)
Pagans caught dancing
Beneath a midsummers moon
Led chaning hands (?)
The stories got mixed
Happened so fast
That no one’s ever sure of it
There was a time
Where you and I moved like spirits in the sky
There was a time
And there will come a time again
We come and we go
Stories in the night
Painted on a granite wall
Shadows and fire light
Fire light
The beach faces south
The mountains east to west
That 15, 000 years ago
It was still a nice place to live
Before the great pyramids
Before Jerusalem
People lived and thrived in this same spot
Beneath this same sun
There was a time
Where you and I moved like spirits in the sky
There was a time
When everything that is was just a thought in someone’s mind
There was a time (there was a time)
When you and I moved like spirits in the sky
There was a time (there was a time)
And there will come a time again
We come and we go
Stories in the night
Painted on a granite wall
Shadows and fire light
Fire light
Fire light
Fire light
Fire light
Fire light
There was a time
There was a time
There was a time
There was a time
There was a time
