Ustabe

Ace Troubleshooter

It used to be, but not anymore

Time slipped through my fingers to the floor

It used to be, but not anymore

Tipped my hat and walked through the door



It used to be the greatest thing to catch fireflies in the evening

And to watch cartoons in my underwear

It used to be my greatest fear

Was what the girl sitting in front of me would say about my hair



But now it's so hard, I'm so far from where I have been

I cannot win anymore

Now I sometimes cry, wonder why, oh I can't stand it

Why can't it be like before?



It used to be the greatest thing to get in Your presence

Get lost in You and revel in Your majesty

It used to be I'd spend an evening alone with You

Get lost in You and hear You speak to me



Why can't it be like before?
