There was a time we'd sit in the backyard 'Cause the house would get so-o hot From the summer sun there was no way of sleepin' And you'd play your old guitar We'd fight mosquitos and enjoy Your backyard concert for we had no television We'd just begun our life as man and wife And hardships then Could scaresely scare us into quittin' Things were far from bein' fine We often dined upon a dime But there never was a time we didn't love And that Christmas brought our saddest day When your pride gave way as you told the kids There'd be no gifts 'cause we were broke And though their little tears of grief Were so hard to see, it didn't hurt me Like the lump I knew was in your throat It was then with arms entwined We both broke down and cried For it seemed like nothin' good would ever come The doctor bills we couldn't pay They came and took our car away But there never was a time we didn't love Now there's an easy chair for my back A satin pillo' for my head And the kids are wild about their brand new cars Dad and I can order steak With all the trimmin's and not worry If we've spent a dollar more than we can spare No wonder in our prayers We thank the man upstairs who led us through The years of rearin' kids and payin' bills And I think he guided us Not because we were smart But just because there never was a time we didn't love No there never was a time, never was a time There never was a time we didn't love Oh there never was a time, never was a time There never was a time we didn't love (fade)
