Memories light the corners of my mind
Misty water color memories of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another fore the way we were
Can't 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
Just tell me would we, could we
Memories maybe beautiful and yet
So many memories too painful to remember
The way we were
Can't 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 would we, could we
Memories maybe beautiful and yet
Much too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter, we will remember
I know whenever we remember the way we were
The way we were
The way we were
I miss the way we were
The way we were
