lyrics

Haven’t seen a mystic in some years//haven’t had a good sound in my ears//What happened to the age of innocence?//what happened to the age of common sense?//it musta been mine musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get//musta been mine musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get your love//only had a few friends in some time//only had a few friends in my prime//what happened to the age of luxury?//what happened to the age of you and me?//it musta been me musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get//musta been mine musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get your love//haven’t seen a mystic in some years//haven’t had a good friend for my tears//I could tell the age of luxury//I could tell the age of Let It Be, “it musta been mine musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get//musta been mine musta been mine musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get//it musta been mine musta been mine ‘cause I didn’t quite get I didn’t quite get your love.”
