The Time That Never Was lyrics - Bruce Springsteen

Sometimes I wake up in the morning

And it cuts me like a knife

I come face-to-face with my longing

For another world, another life

And a time that never was

Oh, a time that never was

We drove on, fueled not by the future

But by a past we could never touch

Forced to run head-on collisions

'Til we vanished in the dust

Of a time that never was

The time that never was

So kiss me once more, baby

One more kiss, baby, you must

Don't ever let me forget, girl

A time that never was

A time that never was

The time that never was

Oh, the time that never was

A time that never was
