More from Paul Thorn

Some really nice Paul Thorn lyrics here; a classic songwriting style, too. The music doesn't do the song justice, so I'll just post the words.

Where Was I?

On a black and white TV

Back in grammar school

I was watching Neal Armstrong

Walking on the moon

That same day I pretended

I was an astronaut

On the playground monkey bars

I flew above the stars

I was in a Dallas disco

The night John Lennon died

The D.J. played "Imagine"

And everybody cried

I remember a thousand lighters

Held up in our hands

All we were saying

Was "Let's give peace a chance"

But where was I when you stopped loving me?

When did I become history

There's not many things

That escape my memory

Tell me where was I when you stopped loving me?

Every twenty-thousand years

That comet lights up the night

On a blanket we watched

It sail across the sky

A moment like that

Comes just once in life

It felt like our first time

At eleven-thirty-five

But where was I when you stopped loving me?

When did I become history

There's not many things

That escape my memory

Tell me where was I when you stopped loving me?

I remember when I met you

The taste of our first kiss

I remember your goodbye

But could you tell me this:

Where was I when you stopped loving me?

When did I become history

There's not many things

That escape my memory

Tell me where was I when you stopped loving me?
