When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed my life by
When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed by life by
It's been a thousand years, you can wipe your tears but they'll come back
And your mama was quite a lady, but your dad was nothin' that special at all
What you could handle on my team, yeah, was only takin' my call
And lightnin' was a-burnin' the valley while my dreams were lookin' for a place to fall
When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed my life by
When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed by life by
You're the man who came empty handed and
You're the man who made me needy
Laid down to rest my lazy bones
And what a trickster! Stole my holy soul
Maybe I had it, maybe you grabbed it
Picked it up and leaved me lonely
One thing brings me joy--I'll never give birth to a baby boy
When I left, when I left, it was a dream
When I left, when I left you, babe
When I left, when I left it was a dream
When I left when I left you, babe
When I left, when I left, it was a dream
When I left when I left you
When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed my life by
When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed my life by
When I think about me it's lifetime, (oh when I think about me) when I think about you I've passed my life by
When I think about me it's lifetime, when I think about you I've passed my life by
When I think about me it's life, (oh when I think about me) when I think about you I've passed my life by
