Lyrics
Said, the wind came on so fast and strong
We did not have the time to [fight the same], mmmm
Oh, and down below the ground
We sat and watched that Virgin Mary candle burn
When a thousand marching bands had all moved on
We opened up the door, mm mm
Said, now everything we'd ever know was gone
Things ain't what they was before
She met him on a Friday night
By Sunday afternoon they'd run away, mm mm
Well I pieced it all together Wednesday evening
With a postcard from L.A.
Thursday morning came and found me
On the ground behind old Lucky's bar
Said the only love I'd ever known was gone
Things ain't what they was before
Oh, Lord, I don't mind the change in time
That settles up the score, oh, no
When that new moon shines on you
Things ain't what they was before
With whiskey on my breath I sang a song
About a love that I once knew, mm mm
And the pain in that refrain took on the meaning
When she walked into the room
Ooh, she told me she was sorry
And she could not live without me anymore, oh, oh
Said the only love she'd ever known was gone
Things ain't what they was before
Well, Lord, I don't mind the change in time
That settles up the score, oh, no
When that new moon shines on you
Things ain't what they was before
Now, eternity had passed without a word
She gently took my hand
Said this ain't no rebound love affair
I don't want no one night stand, mm mm
I pushed back from the bar, grabbed my guitar, now
And I headed for the door
Ooh, I ain't nobody's stepping stone no more
Things ain't what they was before
Na, na, na
Ooh, I don't mind that change in time
That settles up the score, oh, no
When that new moon shines on you
