I Dreamed There Was No War - Eagles

Come on baby, hold me close Let me do my best to both Let me ride, let it roll I was there to catch a man I thought I had him by the hand I only had him by the glove Come on baby, let me in You can show yourself to him You can show me through the doors And I was there, catching air Thought I had him by the hand I only had him by the glove We was there, in the road Picking diamonds from a tree Heard a wolf coming through Coming through and coming hard Tried to leave the heated car Tried to lean against the wall I'll be there, coming clean Like a runner in the wind Coming through the morning light Rising in, in the stone Tried to leave the heat at home Running through the morning dim And I was there to catch a man I thought I had him by the hand I only had him by the glove Come on baby, let me close Let me do my best to both Run through but cut close Come on baby, let me in You can show yourself to him Ride the road, ride it rough Yeah in the day I was gone Tried to leave the heat at home Run through and run the road I was there, coming clean Like a runner in the wind Coming through the morning light You'll be there, on the floor Picking diamonds from a stone Looking through the totem pole

I was there I was there When love crashed and burned I was there I was there when love came around with sweet, warm kisses I was there when it burned into desire I was there when it ran into a raging river And then turned into a runaway wildfire I was there I was there When love came around I was there And one thing for certain I did all the hurtin' At love's final curtain I was there Solo I was there when love came in like a living tornado I was there when it blew out of control I was there when something quickly turned Into nothing Just a hopeless, helpless dream gone up in smoke

Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when Faded memories on the wall, some names I have forgotten But each one is a memory, I look back on so often I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there Looking back what I have done, there's lots more life to live At times, I feel overwhelmed, I question what I can give But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there Looking back upon my life (on my life) Faded memories upon the wall (on the wall) Looking now at who I am (who am I?) I don't let it get me down (I don't let it, get me down) Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there I look into the past I want to make it last I was there I was there
