Peter Frampton
You Had to Be There
One voice tryin' to be heard
Round peg livin' in a square world
We were strangers in a strange land
We were reaching for the upper hand
We were hard to understand
It was juvenile
It was something wild
Part of every child
Yeah, you had to be there
It was rough and tough
It was peace and love
All of the above
Yeah, you had to be there
Outcast, this, there, that, so full of it
Don't tell me it's somethin' that you never did
We were strangers in a strange land
We were reaching for the upper hand
We were hard to understand
It was juvenile
It was something wild
Part of every child
Yeah, you had to be there
It was rough and tough
It was peace and love
All of the above
Yeah, you had to be there
