Sounded Good At The Time

[Verse 1]

Standin' by the door, checkin' my hair

Waitin' on you to take me nowhere

We were always lookin' for a rock and roll Saturday night

We're sittin' on hold with a radio station

Listen all night to hear my dedication

A song to tell the whole town you were mine (That's right)

We sing, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing

Like nothing would ever change and we danced

Like time was really slipping through our hands

Oh, when you said I love you, you might've been lying

But it sure sounded good at the time

Just a hand me down Pontiac

See how many friends we could pile in the back

Saved all summer for a ticket on the front row (Let's go)

Didn't have a plan and we ran out of money

Car broke down, but it's still kind of funny

Cause we hitched a ride with some hippy guy

And barely made it to the show

We sang, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing

Like nothing would ever change and we danced

Like time was really slipping through our hands

Made it back alive, made up a good lie

But it sure sounded good at the time

(Oh yeah)

We did some wrong, but we did it right

But it sure sounded so good at the time

You were mine, alright

Whoa oh, alright

We sing, like we wrote every word to the whole damn thing

Like nothing would ever change and we danced

Like time was really slipping through our hands

So we'd never say goodbye, sure sounded good at the time

(Oh yeah)

It's a melody, on my mind

So we'd never say goodbye

We sing on and on and on (On and on)
