JACKSON BROWNE - The Times You've Come lyrics

rate me

In the time we've known<br>That we each are a part of one another<br>We've lost as much as we have won<br>And as our lives have grown<br>We have found that it only brings us pain<br>That hangs on to the things that we have done<br>Still I love the times you've come<br><br>When you went away<br>Taking all that I'd built my false road on<br>I dropped my life and couldn't find the pieces<br>Now you come and go<br>And it's hard but I feel my strength returning<br>We'll see how far this new road reaches<br>We'll see a little more each time we come<br><br>Now everybody's gonna tell you it's not worth it<br>Everybody's gotta show you their own thing<br>You might try to find your way up around it<br>But the need for love will still remain<br><br>Now we're lying here<br>So safe in the ruins of our pleasures<br>Laughter marks the place where we have fallen<br>And our lives are near<br>So it wouldn't occur to us to wonder<br>Is this the past or the future that is calling<br><br>You know I've loved these times you've come.
