1882 Lyrics by Lucy Walsh

When Life Was Figured Out

2011

[Verse 1]
You and me in London Town
Years ago, snow falling down
Cathedral bells the only sound
And we're in love
You sew the cloaks the kings all wear
You save the scraps and they don't care
Bring them home to me, your maiden fair
And we dress up

[Chorus]
Whatever time and place
We would have always been this way
In love

[Verse 2]
Summer 1944
The hardest kiss and you're off to war
The only thing I'm praying for
Is you coming home
Handwritten letters every month
Cried when I got the final one
Tears of joy, the war is won
And you're coming home

[Chorus]
Whatever time and place
We would have always been this way

[Verse 3]
Morning light, our tiny room
TV's on, just me and you
New York City flowers bloom
Out on our ledge
Coffee in our underwear
The blinds are up, but we don't care
You whisper I'm your maiden fair
And we're in love

[Chorus]
Whatever time and place
We would have always been this way
In love
In love
