letra de a painter passing through (live) - gordon lightfoot
[verse 1]
once upon a time, i was on my own
once upon a time, like you’ve never known
once upon a time, i would be impressed
once upon a time, my life would be obsessed
once upon a time, once upon a day
when i was in my prime, once along the ways
[chorus]
if you wanna know my secret, don’t come runnin’ after me
for i am just a painter passing through in history
[verse 2]
yesterday is gone, yesterday’s alright
yesterday belongs in my dreams at night
yesterday is swell, yesterday is great
yesterday is strong, remembering can wait
once upon a time, once upon a day
when i was in my prime, once along the ways
[chorus]
if you wanna know an answer, i can’t turn your life around
for i am just a painter passing through the underground
[verse 3]
i was in my stride, always at my game
here comes mister cool, along the walk of fame
i was in demand, always in control
the world was in my hands, my touch had turned to gold
once upon a time, i was in a daze
when i was in my prime, once along the ways
[chorus]
if you wanna know my secret, don’t come runnin’ after me
for i am just a painter passing through in history
[verse 4]
now that i am old, let me rest a spell
all that i am told i can never tell
never in my life, never will it pass
i am still alone remembering at last
once upon a time, once upon a day
when i was in my prime, once along the ways
[chorus]
if you wanna know an answer, i can’t turn your life around
for i am just a painter passing through the underground
if you wanna know my secret, don’t come runnin’ after me
for i am just a painter passing through in history
