about

Tracy Stearns reached out to Eric to provide vocals and lyrics for his instrumental track, initially called Bounce. That collaboration can be heard at: tracystearns.bandcamp.com/track/there-was-a-time. The Electric Angels have re imagined the song as a Pop melodrama, while Tracy provides a blistering lead.

lyrics

There Was A Time
Eric Daum © 2019


There was a time when you taught me songs,
But I'd get words wrong.
There was a time when I'd zip your dress,
And I'd kiss your neck and you'd smile.

Just tonight, I watched the stars, and I thought of you.
Somewhere tonight, did you think of me
When you saw the same stars too?

There was a time when I could make laugh,
Just like a psychopath.
And there was a time, when I'd paint your toes
And I'd wipe your nose when you cried...because I lied

Just tonight, I watched the stars, and I thought of you.
Somewhere tonight, did you think of me
When you saw the same stars too?

There was a time, when I'd place your bets.
and light your cigarettes
And there as a time when I could touch your hand
And you would understand all the words that I couldn't say

And There was a time when you'd reveal your depth
And I'd inhale your breath.
And there was a time when you'd hold my hand
But I'm not...anymore
No, I'm not anymore
