The Way We Were

Memories

Like the corners of my mind

Misty watercolor memories

Of the way we were

Scattered pictures

Of the smiles we left behind

Smiles we gave to one another

For the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then

Or has time rewritten every line

If we had the chance to do it all again

Tell me - would we? could we?

Memories

May be beautiful and yet

What?s too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget

So it is the laughter

We will remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were

So it is the laughter

We will remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were

Could it be that it was all so simple then

Or has time rewritten every line

and If we had the chance to do it all again

Tell me - could we? would we?

Memories

Can be beautiful and yet

What?s too painful to remember

We simply choose to forget

So it's laughter

We will remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were

So it is the laughter

We will remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were
