The Way We Were

Memories like the corners of my mind

Memories

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

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 laughter we'll remember

We'll remember

Whenever we remember

The way we were
