I'd Rather Have What We Had

(album: Shine On - 1983)

We used to drink Bluenune there in room 321
Over the river where we weren't well known
Now it's two coffees then off to the office
Then back in the driveway and sitting at home

Sneaking around with me
Being tied down with me
Which one would you rather have?
(Be honest)

Dying to be with me, watching TV with me
Is this what we wanted so bad?
Well, I'd rather have what we had

We carefully planned it, what our hearts demanded
No more motel rooms, no more cheating lies
Now we're looking at it a neatly wrapped package
But open it up and there's no surprise

Sneaking around with me
Being tied down with me
Which one would you rather have?
(Be honest)

Dying to be with me, watching TV with me
Is this what we wanted so bad?
Well, I'd rather have what we had
Darling, I'd rather have what we had
