"A couple of Lifetimes Ago" Copyright 2007 Rob Young Verse 1 When I was a young boy, man that was long ago... Lived in a house built by MacArthur just north of Tokyo I played outside in the courtyard, in the land of the rising sun a cowboy hat, a plastic badge, a holster and a gun Chorus It was before we had to grow up way before we played for keeps we dreamed of new tommorows as we slowly drift a sleep. the cherry blossoms bloomed each year near the buddah that sat so still and we drove around the country side with my father behind the wheel now that feels like it sure do feel like It feels like a couple of lifetimes ago Verse 2 My folks they learned some Japanesee it was enough to get us by and my father, he climbed Mt Fuji, it was way up in the sky Me and my brothers bought some candy with some Yen kept in this Jar and we went to see a "Hard Day's Night" at the drive-in in our car. Chorus It was before we had to grow up way before we played for keeps we dreamed of new tommorows as we slowly drift a sleep. the cherry blossoms bloomed each year near the buddah that sat so still and we drove around the country side with my father behind the wheel now that feels like it sure do feel like It feels like a couple of lifetimes ago Verse 3 I finally made it back there but the house had disappeared a public park and a plaque that read "Grant Heights" housing was here but I have these photographs with some faded memories and I can tell you stories of a place you'll never see Chorus It was before we had to grow up way before we played for keeps we dreamed of new tommorows as we slowly drift a sleep. the cherry blossoms bloomed each year near the buddah that sat so still and we drove around the country side with my father behind the wheel now that feels like it sure do feel like It feels like a couple of lifetimes ago
