Pete Townshend - Was There Life lyrics

Was there life before this love

Was there love before this I can see

Was there ever love for her before me

And if I look will she

Look back at me

Is fantasy

Enough?

Was there heat before this flame

Were there flames before this fire in my heart

Was I wrong about it from the start

Am I in ecstasy

Or next to see

That fantasy

S'to blame

Was there life before this love . . . . . . .

If I look up will she

Look back at me

Is fantasy

Enough?

If this scene is in a dream

Then I'm perfect for the part I play

You can count on me to stand and say

"Was there ever life before this wonderful day?"

If this dream's within a dream

Then I'll never swoon quite deep enough

No hypnotic trance quite sleep enough . . . .

If in this sweet dream I'm flying

I will never fly quite high enough

You will hear me crying high above

"Was there ever life before this wonderful love
