We Had It All

next to a cross on a chain i had a ring it wore a hole in my pocket somehow i lost that thing the circus left town, september came they say after your first you’ll never be the same we had it all, all for a little while we sent that sunset summer out in style we were blue jean kids in love young and wild we had it all, all for a little while we were pedal to the metal on the highway we had nothing but time watching you walk to me down your driveway i never felt so alive we’d drive to the river, park in the dark forever was a word we knew by heart repeat chorus the love and memories that we made those were the days i had your picture in a heart shaped locket next to a cross on a chain chorus --- We Had It All - Richard Marx
