Back When, I Couldn'T Walk I Had To Crawl

Back When, I Couldn't Walk I Had To Crawl

Back when, I couldn't walk I had to crawl
when that sad and low, you just cant be tall
Back when, life beat living hell out of me
when day and night both, wouldn't let me be
There was a crack in our shining rainbow
And even our broke hearts, put on a show!

Back when, you cried and then you said goodbye
when life exploded, I wanted to die
Back when, our arrows were shot full of pain
when love's poison made us swear, not again
There was a crack in our shining rainbow
And even our broke hearts, put on a show!

Back when, loneliness invaded our lives
when excuses were our daily exercise
Back when, precious lips were my sweet taste
when in bed, time we never would waste
There was a crack in our shining rainbow
And even our broke hearts, put on a show!

Back when, Fate's dark hand cast us both aside
when you walked out, both our souls died
Back when, we each had went a bridge too far
when you drove away in our newest car
There was a crack in our shining rainbow
And even our broke hearts, put on a show!

Back when, I couldn't walk I had to crawl
when that sad and low, you just cant be tall
Back when, life beat living hell out of me
when day and night both, wouldn't let me be
There was a crack in our shining rainbow
And even our broke hearts, put on a show!
