about

At the time, I was really into the big sound of 80's, 90's rock records, especially Clapton. This was an attempt at reproducing that sound.

lyrics

Where has she gone?
Please tell me, where is my friend?
It used to be us, but oh, no baby, now it is them
It used to be magic - how could it end
It used to be us - but now it is them

Where is my love?
Please, tell me, where can she be?
It used to be us, but oh, no baby, now she is free
It used to be special - take it from me
It used to be us - but now she is free

CHORUS: I’m takin’ a rain check on romance
Waiting for the skies to clear
I’m takin’ a rain check on romance
Waiting for a change in the atmosphere

What can it mean?
Please tell me, what have I done?
It used to be us, but oh, no baby, now she is gone
It used to be precious - It used to be fun
It used to be us - but now she’s on the run

CHORUS:

Where did she go?
Please tell me, what can I do?
It used to be us, but oh, no baby now that’s not true
It used to be magic - It used to be right
It used to be us - but now she’s in flight

CHORUS:
