orchestral manoeuvres in the dark – that was then lyrics
i would lie awake and cry at night
that was then, this is now
i had an anger that was strong enough
and i would face the things, i run from now
and everything we did was wonderful
now it’s practical, and i don’t know how
all the moves we made were done for love
now it’s not enough, it seems somehow
and all the feelings that i knew would last
well they are gone, where are they now
and you were beautiful and dangerous
and now you’ve sacrificed, some sacred cow
and i would listen to the things you said
they all made sense, why don’t they now
oh, not a penny in our pockets then
we never worried, so why do we now
standing tall against my destiny
oh i had visions, and i could see
i would walk a thousand miles for you
but that was then, that was then
this is now, this is now
look at me now
this is now
over decades things are changing me
i have no energy, where am i now
too many people seem in need of me
when i was younger, i felt so free
can you see the things i care about
they’re not important now, time’s run out
and only memories are left with me
this shallow history, becomes my destiny
i would lie awake and cry all night
that was then
this is now
oh, this is now
