| Song | There Was a Time |
| Artist | Asia |
| Album | Omega |
| There was a perfect time for us, it seems so long ago | |
| We were so naïve about the things we both should know | |
| The best intentions come to nil when love has lost desire | |
| And slowly years will show the dying embers of a fire | |
| There was a time when | |
| I loved you | |
| And a time when | |
| I liedI put none up above you | |
| And I tried, yes | |
| I triedI'd stand aside, so you could be free | |
| But all of the time | |
| I was running from me, | |
| I'd lay down my life, if you'd asked that of me, | |
| Yeah, there was a time | |
| To look at all the years gone by, | |
| I made mistakes it's true | |
| It's always just the little things remind me of you | |
| All too often, | |
| I will sit, and wonder where | |
| I've beenFor every time | |
| I looked at you, you're thinking of him | |
| There was a time | |
| I respected you, | |
| There were times when | |
| I criedWhen | |
| I was expected to, | |
| I would stand at your side | |
| And you ask me would | |
| I do it again, | |
| I would tell you the truth, look you straight in your eyes | |
| And I'd say it though most would think me insane | |
| I'd say it although | |
| I have nothing to gain | |
| Yeah, There was a time | |
| I laid down my life for you | |
| And think of when | |
| I lied for you | |
| And think of when | |
| I cried for you | |
| And you know | |
| I would have died for you | |
| There was a time when | |
| I loved you | |
| And a time when | |
| I liedThere were none up above you | |
| And for you, | |
| I'd have died | |
| But the big wheel turns at last | |
| When all my emotions were tied up with you | |
| My hopes and my dreams could never win through | |
| The path has been cleared, now | |
| I'm free of you | |
| Yeah, now is my time | |
| There will come a time for you | |
| There will come a time for you | |
| There will come a time for you | |
| There will come a time for you |
| There was a perfect time for us, it seems so long ago | |
| We were so na ve about the things we both should know | |
| The best intentions come to nil when love has lost desire | |
| And slowly years will show the dying embers of a fire | |
| There was a time when | |
