The Way We Were Lyrics

Memories,
Light the corners of my mind
Misty water-coloured memories
Of the way we were

Scattered pictures,
Of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another
Of the way we were

Can it be that it was all so simple then?
Or has time re-written 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's the laughter
We will remember
Whenever we remember
The way we were
The way we were
