OK this is a cover of an Adele/Dan Wilson track with new lyrics by me, Kirby Howarth

This is a kind of reply to the original lyric, so as you will soon realize I've changed all of them :)

Thanks to Daniel Bowater for his excellent piano work :)

'Time it Was' which has lots of words... that's what comes from a wordy kind of guy.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Time it was I had a vision
Time it was I knew her face
Time it was, oh
What a time to chase
Looking back on what I had
Looking back on what I missed
Looking back well
It never seemed that bad
So many things I should have done
So many things I should have said
So many things
Just little things inside my head
So where where did my dreams go
and where where did my life go
and where where do I go
Where do I go from here
Well, your dreams run around inside your head
Like a million roads that never end
They curve they turn into many ways
And mould your life to the present day
They’ll never die they’ll never stray
You know it’s always meant to be this way
Well you’ve got so much in your life
Beautiful kids and a loving wife
They’ll drive you nuts from time to time
But you’ll get what you give along the line
you don’t wanna lose, there’s so much to gain
Cause you know their always there to keep you sane
I had a dream that led me away
from the dirty streets where I used play
Burnt out lives and burnt out cars
high as a kite and ride in the park
But it might seem good but I know better
I got the proof in a certified letter
It’ll screw you up, and screw you sideways
Chase you round and drive you crazy
It’ll kiss you on the arm then slap you in the face
and drag you down to the darkest place
But if you get lucky you might find the door
That opens your mind to so much more
Time it was I had a vision
Time it was I knew that place
Time it was
Oh what a time it was
So where, where do your dreams go
Where, where does your life go
And where, where do you go
Only you know

Time it Was

Noses In The Trough

Just Another Place


Just a little truth
Just a little reason
Just a little lie
That sent me to prison

Just a little heart
Just a little soul
Just a human being
That I didn't know

Just another time
Just another place
I thought you were my friend
But now I see your face

Just Another Place

As a result, his songs grow ever more focussed and appealing"
