Days Were Different - Lisa Loeb

Days were different when you counted them in hours

There were some things that she never wanted again

In fragmented words, too weak to hear

There were some things that she never wanted again

Like: do you want to be the man she once knew?

Do you want to be the woman she knew too

Days were different when you counted them in hours

There were some things that she never wanted again

Like, she won’t talk of blocks, and of time

And of clocks and how they bind

And the days that have passed so fast that you might

Bring the past to the present, and say it is your future life

I’m waking up from a bed of past lives lived

'cause I’m living my life 'half-life, half-lived.'

Days were different when you counted them in hours

There were some things that she never wanted again

In fragmented words, too weak to hear

There were some things that she never wanted again

Like: do you want to be the man she once knew?

Do you want to be the woman she knew too

Do you want to be the woman

She was you

Days are different now

They are ours

And days are different now

They are mine
