Was That All It Was
Was that all it was?
A way to pass some time
momentary thing
not worth the memory
in the morning
must it be so be cold
something bought and sold
was it just a game
would you recall my name
if you saw me
How would it be; I wonder?
if we ever meet again
now that I've been your love
Is this how it's gonna end?
Will we ever be just friends?
Run to me every now and then
whow-whow-whow-whow-oh
was that all it was?
night out on the town
an excersise of will
or what you needed filled
did you use me
How would it be; I wonder?
if we ever meet again
now that I've been your love
Is this how it's gonna end?
Will we ever be just friends?
Run to me every now and then
whow-whow-whow-whow-oh
was that all it was?
when you close the door
pasion left behind
out of sight and out of mind
gone forever
was that all it was?
How would it be; I wonder?
if we ever meet again
now that I've been your love
Is this how it's gonna end?
Will we ever be just friends?
Run to me every now and then
whow-whow-whow-whow-oh
was that all it was?
when you close the door
pasion left behind
out of sight and out of mind
gone forever
was that all it was?
whow-whow-whow-whow-oh
was that all it was?
did you use me?
did you use me?
did you use me?
o-o-ooh
yeah
