There was a time I sang to you There was a time you were singing too And every word that we sang was true, it was true Now leaves come down in Union Square Sparrows fly through the dirty air And I could look for you anywhere, you're not there, you're not there So hushabye hushabye Hushabye now Making all our days by hand Regular folks didn't understand With the pie in the sky and the lines in the sand
Long past the curtain call Devotion & doubt and the wrecking ball But all of that sound couldn't hold up the walls not at all, at all So hushabye hushabye Hushabye now You know and I know And you know and I know And you know and I know We don't have to bury it, we just have to sing it to sleep There was a time I sang to you There was a time you were singing too And every word that we sang was true
