about

This is the second single from DyaNangaNow.

The feel of this production is like an actual live performance (although it was recorded in a studio). You can feel the "liveness" from the start of the track as the drummer steadily kicks off the tempo of the song with his hi-hat.

Unlike the first track's lyrics that were written in the Sranan (a language of Suriname), this one is in English.
There is an instrumental version available of 'There Was A Time' for anyone who likes to listen to instrumentals.

lyrics

People on the road, they’re talking and smiling
No one seems to notice I’m sad and I’m crying
Each night and each day that I’m sleeping alone
There’s got to be a change or I’ll die on my own

Sunny days were once filled up with laughter
Many a lover that made my life better
Yes, there was a time I had love in my life
Sweet memories are left to fill up my nights

Under the stars
There’s nothing greater than love
I missed it so long by now
I must have forgotten how
Well, if there’s someone
Help me please

Silly games that were once so romantic
Taking us so high like a trip straight to heaven
The wind whispers love, that was lost ever since
I’m a witness of things that drift by in the wind

Under the stars
There’s nothing greater than love
I missed it so long by now
I must have forgotten how
Well, if there’s someone
Help me please

Under the stars
There’s nothing greater than love
I missed it so long by now
I must have forgotten how
Well, if there’s someone
Help me please
