The Song We Were Singing - Paul McCartney, Jeff Lynne

For a while, we could sit, smoke a pipe

And discuss all the vast intricacies of life

We could jaw through the night

Talk about a range of subjects, anything you like

Oh yeah

But we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Yeah we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Take a sip, see the world through a glass

And speculate about the cosmic solution

To the sound, blue guitars

Caught up in a philosophical discussion

Oh yeah

But we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Yeah we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

For a while, we could sit, smoke a pipe

And discuss all the vast intricacies of life

Yeah, we could jaw through the night

Talk about a range of subjects, anything you like

But we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Yeah we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Yeah, we always came back

Take a sip, see the world through a glass

And speculate about the cosmic solution

To the sound, blue guitars

Caught up in a philosophical discussion

Oh yeah

But we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Yes we always came back to the songs we were singing

At any particular time

Yeah

We always came back to the songs we were singing
