Back When It Was

I got a song in my heart

Let me start with I'm over you

Still it can't hurt me to say very plain . . . I think about you

And the laughs and the jokes and the times that I shared with you.

I got this feeling for reminiscing

Wanted to take that trip down memory lane

But what is missing, is that you're not here to sit down with me

So I'm thinking these beautiful things all by myself.

And what's on my mind is...

Back when it was

Simple as breathing

Just the two of us

We were happy together it was

Easy to be in

Our relationship,

You remember when

You used to say you loved me so

Promised one time to never go away

And now you're gone

The smile that you left me with, is the same smile I've kept on wearing

The smile's not so much tied to you

More tied to what we spent sharing

Simple little things

But it was all those simple little things that pleased me the most...

Need I remind you 'bout the good times baby

There were good times from the start

Good times in my heart

A heart that never lied

Remember back in '99.

When we snuck into the neighbor's pool and went for a dip

There were good times in the rain

Good times everyday

Good times Heaven knows

Remember that dirty little joke

Made us laugh all night long.

Back when it was

Simple as breathing

Just the two of us

We were happy together it was

Easy to be in

Our relationship,

You remember when

You used to say you loved me so

Promised one time to never go away

And now you're gone

The joy you left me with, nothing stronger since

What we did together

I ain't felt nothing better since that time

Those were the days

The nights

The minutes

The seconds

That you were mine

Back when it was

Simple as breathing

Just the two of us

We were happy together it was

Easy to be in

Our relationship,

You remember when

You used to say you loved me so

Promised one time to never go away

And now you're gone
