It Was You by Peter Katz Lyrics
[Verse 1: Peter Katz]
It's a holiday today, spent the mornin' sleepin' in
Read the whole newspaper, can't remember last time I did
So quiet in this house, gone the rush there used to be
Not that all the noise really ever bothered me
I was somewhere in the mix, had my place there in the race
Love in my heart and on my face
[Chorus: Peter Katz]
Had my hope through and through
Had my work always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my light, it was you
[Verse 2: Peter Katz & Emma-Lee]
There's this question in my head, ringing louder every day
What am I still doing here anyway
I don't feel sorry for myself, just think my time has come
I had my glory days and now they're done
I wanna lay down in the pages of our photograph
For I was there beside you and you made me laugh
[Chorus: Peter Katz & Emma-Lee]
Had my hope through and through
Had my work always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my light, it was you
[Bridge: Peter Katz & Emma-Lee]
And I'd do it all again, send my heart back fifty years
Though I knew one day time would send me right back here
Without you, my standing stone, my renewer in the fight
I could go a hundred rounds with you there in my sight
But now the bell has rung and everyone went home
But I was left to watch you fade to skin and bone
I know you had to go, and I'mma call too many times
Just wish I coulda been beside you in that [?]
[Chorus: Peter Katz]
Had my hope through and through
Had my work always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my light, it was you
Had my light, it was you
Had my light
It's a holiday today, spent the mornin' sleepin' in
Read the whole newspaper, can't remember last time I did
So quiet in this house, gone the rush there used to be
Not that all the noise really ever bothered me
I was somewhere in the mix, had my place there in the race
Love in my heart and on my face
[Chorus: Peter Katz]
Had my hope through and through
Had my work always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my light, it was you
[Verse 2: Peter Katz & Emma-Lee]
There's this question in my head, ringing louder every day
What am I still doing here anyway
I don't feel sorry for myself, just think my time has come
I had my glory days and now they're done
I wanna lay down in the pages of our photograph
For I was there beside you and you made me laugh
[Chorus: Peter Katz & Emma-Lee]
Had my hope through and through
Had my work always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my light, it was you

And I'd do it all again, send my heart back fifty years

[Chorus: Peter Katz]
Had my hope through and through
Had my work always to do
Had my dreams all come true
Had my light, it was you
Had my light, it was you
Had my light
