The Way We Were

 

Memories like the corners of my mind
Misty¹ watercolor memories
Of the way we were
He Shys of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
For the way we were

Oh can 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 may be beautiful and yet
What's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget
So it's the laughter² we'll remember
We'll remember
Whenever we remember
The Way We Were...
