Lyric When We Had It Bad

(Tom Shapiro/Terri Clark/Chris Waters)

Back when we had nothing
That was when we had it all
We were so in love, it almost hurt
Now, you re staring at the TV
While I m staring at the wall
And I m hurting now-for the way we were

I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain t the way things are
And it s so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad

I don t know how it happens
Why the passion has to fade
Remember when we said it never would
Won t you hold me like you used to
When you took my breath away
Cause it ain t too late for us to feel that good

I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain t the way things are
And it s so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad

I liked it better when we had it bad
When a burning love was all we had
And every time we were apart
There was an aching in our hearts
Now that ain t the way things are
And it s so sad
I liked it better when we had it bad

I liked it better when we had it bad
