It Used to Be

Sittin' on a mountain top just me and my guitar
A pint of homemade whiskey that won't go very far
Sittin' here just ponderin' on the things that went so wrong
That's why I'm on this mountain top just tryin' to write this song

(Chorus)
It used to be that our love was heaven-sent from up above
It used to be the love we shared no where on earth could be compared

I'm stayin' in a cabin that was built for me and you
All our love came tumblin' down
That's what left me blue
Lyin' in the bed at night just thinkin' what we had
I came to this conclusion
The good outweighed the bad.

Chorus

Time has passed and I'm still here, I got over you
I don't believe in fairy tales or dreams that don't come true
Our love died a lonely death, I can't tell you how
I believe in things I see but I don't see us now

Chorus twice
