Ever Present Past Songtext
von Paul McCartney

I′ve got too much on my plate
Don't have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it isn′t too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past

I've got too much on my mind
I think of everything to be discovered
I hope there's something to find
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past, hmm

The things I think I did
I did I, did I, did
The things I think I did
When I was a kid


I couldn′t understand a word that they were saying
But still I hung around and took it all in
I wouldn′t join in with the games that they were playing
It went by, it went by, in a flash
It flew by, it flew by, in a flash

There's far too much on my plate
Don′t have no time to be a decent lover
I hope it's never too late
Searching for the time that has gone so fast
The time that I thought would last
My ever present past, hmm

The things I think I did
I did I, did I, did
The things I think I did
When I was a kid, hmm

The things I think I did
I did I, did I, did, hmm
The things I think I did
When I was a kid
Oh, when I was a kid
