Thanks Puppy for dropping by for 13000.



That's the album my wife and I used to ML to in our newlywed days! We'd work all day out in the yard, then come in late-afternoon, take a joint shower, grab some wine coolers, and put "Nebraska" on.


Used to Be
August, 2003

Warm springtime Saturdays
Spent sweating in the sun
Sweet afternoon romance
Newlywed fun

The Boss is singin’ Nebraska
Thunder’s clapping outside
Dark clouds are rolling in
But we’re happy inside

That’s how it used to be
Oh, it used to be
So young and so innocent
So wild and so free
Didn’t have half as much
As we’re trapped by right now
But somehow I think that we were rich
And I’m wondering how
I can get back,
Gotta get back
To where we used to be.

Years passed and duty called
Places we had to be
Still sometimes we’d steal away
You’d be so tender to me

Somewhere I noticed it changing,
It was there behind your eyes
I don’t know when it happened,
But in the darkness I’d cry

For what used to be
Just how it used to be
So loving and tender
I knew it’s where you wanted to be
Hell, we didn’t know anything
But one thing we knew
Was just you and me
Oh baby can I take you back
Gotta get us back
To where we used to be

So blessed in so many ways,
Lord I hate to complain
Maybe I’m the one who missed it
And caused us this pain
Maybe I can I make it right
And we’ll be happy again
And then I’ll take you back
God help me get us back
To where we used to be

Where we used to be
Baby, we used to be
I would give anything
To be that young and that free
Can’t think of anything
I’ve surrounded myself with
Can’t think of anything
That I wouldn’t give

To find that used to be
That precious used to be
Please don’t turn away from me
Come back to that used to be.
