Sounded Good At The Time

Standing by the door checking my hair Waiting on you to take me nowhere We were always looking for a rock and roll Saturday night We're sitting on hold with a radio station Listen all night to hear my dedication A song to tell the whole town you were mine We sing, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing Like nothing would ever change and we danced Like time was really slipping through our hands Oh, when you said I love you, you might have been lying But it sure sounded good at the time Just a hand me down Pontiac See how many friends we could pile in the back Saved all summer for a ticket on the front row Didn't have a plan and we ran out of money Car broke down but it's still kind of funny Cause we hitched a ride with some hippy guy And barely made it to the show We sang, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing Like nothing would ever change and we danced Like time was really slipping through our hands Made it back alive, made up a good lie But it sure sounded good at the time We did some wrong, but we did it right But it sure sounded so good at the time You were mine, alright, whoa oh, alright We sing, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing Like nothing would ever change and we danced Like time was really slipping through our hands So we'd never say goodbye, sure sounded good at the time It's a melody, on my mind So we'd never say goodbye We sing on and on and on (on and on)
