There Was a Time Lyrics

...THERE WAS A TIME... by Donovan
*from 'A Gift from a Flower to a Garden' (1968)*
Verse 1:
There was a time, I thought of mine only.
Could it be, oc-curred to me while lonely.
Chorus 1:
I was noble personage,
Born to beauti-fy the page.
If I used time to set it down.
Verse 2:
There was a time, I thought of mine only.
Could it be, oc-curred to me while lonely.
Chorus 2:
I was of high lineage,
Cast up in a dreadful age.
Born to be the hermit of my line.
Bridge 1:
On a windy saturday,
St. Alban's market day.
Little did I know,
The work I was to do,
Or the love I had to show.
Verse 3:
There was a time, I thought of mine only.
Could it be, oc-curred to me while lonely.
Chorus 3:
I was of high lineage,
Cast up in a dreadful age.
Born to be the hermit of my line.
