Title: There Never Was A Time

Lyrics There Never Was A Time

There was a time we'd sit in the backyard
Cause the house would get so hot from the summer sun
There was no way of sleepin' and you'd play your old guitar
We'd fight mosquitos and enjoyed your backyard concerts
For we had no television
We'd just begun our life as man and wife
And hardships then could scarsly scare us into quittin'
Things were far from bein' fine
We often dined upon a dime
But there never was a time we didn't love

The Christmas brought us saddest days
When your pride gave a way
You told the kids there'd be no gifts cause we were broke
Though their little tears of grief was so hard to see
It didn't hurt me like the love I knew was in your throat
It was then with arms entwined we both broke down and cried
For it seemed like nothing good would ever come
The doctor bills we couldn't pay they came and took our car away
But there never was a time we didn't love

Now there's an easy chair for my back, a satin pillow for your head
And the kids are wild about the brand new car
You and I can order steak with all the trimmings and not worry
If we've spent a dollar more than we can spare
No wonder in your prayers we've thanked the man upstairs who led us through
The years of rearin' kids and payin' bills
And I think he guided us not because we were smart but just because
There never was a time we didn't love

No there never was a time
Never was a time, never was a time we didn't love
