THE WAY WE WERE

   Mem'ries,
   Like the corners of my mind;
   Misty watercolor mem'ries
   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?

   Mem'ries,
   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.

   The way we were.
