Lyrics All Our Love - Shawn Phillips

All Our Love

And why should we
Want to go back where we were
How many years could that have been?
And why should we
Want to live a life that’s past
And nevermore will ever be
Aren’t you happy now with all the things you have around your life?
Your newborn child
Your grandchildren
Your loving loyal wife
Is it your tax and debts and moneyed threats
And violence in your life
The threat of being thrown in jail
And hated out of spite
But why couldn’t we
Create the age we want to hav
Without the memory?
