Townshend Pete was there life

Townshend Pete
Iron Man
Was There Life
HOGARTH
Was there life before this love
Was there love before this I can see
Was there ever love for her before me
And if I look will she
Look back at me
Is fantasy
Enough?
Was there heat before this flame
Were there flames before this fire in my heart
Was I wrong about it from the start
Am I in ecstasy
Or next to see
That fantasy
S'to blame
Was there life before this love . . . . . . .
If I look up will she
Look back at me
Is fantasy
Enough?
If this scene is in a dream
Then I'm perfect for the part I play
You can count on me to stand and say
Was there ever life before this wonderful day?
If this dream's within a dream
Then I'll never swoon quite deep enough
No hypnotic trance quite sleep enough . . . .
If in this sweet dream I'm flying
I will never fly quite high enough
You will hear me crying high above
Was there ever life before this wonderful love?
