The Way It Should Be

[Intro]

That feels so good

[Verse 1]

You know that I do love you, babe

But I don't want to rush it, babe

Today I wanna hold you

Tomorrow I will give you more, yeah

I wanna take my time with you

So I can make it right with you

That's how it used to be

I only wanna give you more

[Chorus]

Like when love was love (Was love)

When a kiss was a kiss (Was a kiss)

That's what I miss (I miss)

And that's the way it should be

When a man was a man (Ooh)

When forever was a plan (A plan)

And people still hold hands

And that's the way it should be

[Verse 2]

I wanna take long walks with you

And share all of my thoughts with you

I wonder how you see your dreams

'Cause I see all my dreams in you, oh baby

Remember the nights that we never meant

Creeping round with love when we were friends

I wish we could bring back

Those days back when we were friends

[Chorus]

'Cause love was love (Love, I wanna love)

When a kiss was a kiss (Remember)

That's what I miss (I miss)

And that's the way it should be (You, baby)

When a man was a man

When forever was a plan (Was a plan)

And people still hold hands (Hold my hand)

And that's the way it should be (Love)

When love was love (Ooh)

When a kiss was a kiss

That's what I miss (I miss)

And that's the way it should be (You in my life)

When a man was a man

When forever was a plan (Forever was your plan)

And people still hold hands

And that's the way it should be (Be)

[Break]

(I want you, baby

Oh-yeah, oh-yeah, ooh)

When love was love

When a kiss was a kiss (Oh, baby)

That's what I miss (I miss you, babe)

[Bridge]

Tell that you belong to me

Make me secure, that I'm all you need

Hold me at night, take my troubles away

I wish we could go back to the days when

[Chorus]

When love was love

When a kiss was a kiss (Was a kiss)

That's what I miss

And that's the way it should be (Ooh)

When a man was a man (A man)

When forever was a plan (A plan to love)

And people still hold hands (Hold me, babe)

And that's the way it should be (Hold me)

When love was love (Oh, lovin' me)

When a kiss was a kiss (Oh)

That's what I miss (I miss)

And that's the way it should be (Lovin' me)

When a man was a man (Holdin' me)

When forever was a plan (Lovin' me)

And people still hold hands (Holdin' up, holdin' me)

And that's the way it should be (Hold my hand)

[Outro]

When you love me

When you hold me

When you love me
