Medley: We Used To Know/for A Thousand Mothers Lyrics - Jethro Tull

Whenever I get to feel this way, 

Try to find new words to say, 

I think about the bad old days 

We used to know. 

Nights of winter turn me cold 

Fears of dying, getting old. 

We ran the race and the race was won 

By running slowly. 

Could be soon we'll cease to sound, 

Slowly upstairs, faster down. 

Then to revisit stony grounds, 

We used to know.

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

Remembering mornings, shillings spent, 

Made no sense to leave the bed. 

The bad old days they came and went 

Giving way to fruitful years. 

Saving up the birds in hand 

While in the bush the others land. 

Take what we can before the man 

Says it's time to go. 

Photos 

Each to his own way I'll go mine. 

Best of luck in what you find. 

But for your own sake remember times 

We used to know.
