Ryan Montbleau - It's All Been Done Before lyrics
He was the son of a loving businessman Young days filled with affluent affection Late nights all alone walking along those suburban roads Searching for some cosmic connection And as he walked those tree-lined roads He would swear himself a sacred oath To always reach up endless toward the sky Walking through the midnight dew He would curse the lack of something new And he’d stare up at the sky and wonder why Why it’s all been done before, and so it will again “Nothing new is ever new”, he said And it’s all been done before, it’s all been tried and true and said There must be something somewhere out there someone left She was the daughter of a military man Each year marked by a different direction Seasons spent in the solitude of some transitory plan Running from any constant connection And just as she might settle in The orders came to leave again And she’d stare down at the ground and refuse to cry Bags packed and off to go She would swear herself a silent oath To someday stay in one place just for a while Cause it’s all been done before, and so it will again “Nothing new is ever new”, she said It’s all been done before, it’s all been tried and true and said And it makes no bit of difference in the end They met on a moonlit night when the evergreens were waving Ever so slightly in that misty western wind And he walked along his usual path and she sat upon her brand new old fence Through the haze of the street light their eyes met Their eyes – their eyes met, their eyes met And then they started up a conversation Just a simple little conversation And that was it Though it seemed like endless nights and days It did not take long for him to say “You’re the one for me, I’ll buy you a diamond ring Together we will see the world Walk every inch upon the earth We will climb the highest mountains, sail the shining seas Do everything” She said “No it’s all been done before, worry not your head Me and you is something new,” she said And it’s all been done before, it’s all been tried and true and said “I want you not something new” is what she said He lifted up his head, looked her in the eye Said “I think I understand, for the first time in my life That it’s all…been done…before And it’s all…been done before Ain’t it beautiful, it’s all been done…before” |
