Aimee Mann – Way Back When Lyrics  Share

From Aimee Mann's album: Whatever

Well, I guess that this is now the end
who^,d have thought
my old friend
we signed the papers and we capped the pen
But I remember you from way back when
^,Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
welcome David-what^,s-his-name-again^,
Things change -
the old cliche
if we knew now what we knew yesterday
oh, we couldn^,t give it away.

I was working at a record store
I knew you,
you knew the score
some kind of deal is what we^,re looking for
Time came, and disappeared
no one steered and
it got weirder
help was needed, no one volunteered.

Things change,
you got to wait a bit
what made me think that I could weather it?
you^,re down before you even notice
[ Way Back When lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/a/aimee-mann/way-back-when/ ]
you^,ve been hit

And through it all I wondered where the bus
was taking you
who knew?
and even though my one and one was always
making two
I never thought that I was breaking you.

We were victims of the old taboo
but people change
we changed too
just make it count before they get to you.

Things change -
baby, hold the phone! -
they^,ll shoot you down like you was Al Capone
Oh, you better go it alone.

Well, I guess that this is now the end
the paper^,s signed -
forget the pen
wonder if we^,ll ever meet again?
