Well I guess you had to be there

Such a different place

And I was cruisin' along

Never thinkin' that we'd ever change

Yeah I guess you had to be there

It was a hell of a ride

Lines were blurry and hurried

But it felt like the stars had aligned We were sharin' a new day

Singing a new song

And everyone's problems

Were suddenly gone

Everything I ever wanted

Is right before my face

Tell all the beautiful people

Were always at my place Well I guess you had to be there

All we wanted was more

There were winners and losers

And people passed out on my floor

And you know you should've called me

For that real good time

Guess you missed some of the gold

When you're too busy chasin' the shine We were sharin' a new day

Singing a new song

And everyone's problems

Were suddenly gone

Everything I ever wanted

Is right before my face

'Cause all the beautiful people

Were always at my place We were sharing a new day

Sipping on a new wine

And everyone's problems

Were suddenly mine

And all you ever wanted

Was right in front of your face

Starts as a good thing

Turns into a hate
