Lyrics

Ooh yeah, yeah
Everyday we used to slip away to talk
We would talk about the goodness of your heart
Now it seems a myth that never exists at all
And it leaves me feeling empty with this hollow call
Make it like it was
The way it used to be
When I hungered for your love constantly
Make it like it was
It was easier for me
I know you're able to make it like it was
At a certain time you would find me on my knees
Asking you to supply all my brother's needs
Now it seems the needs are a secondary thing
And it truly makes me wonder what's really happening
Make it like it was
The way it used to be
When I hungered for your love constantly
Make it like it was
It was easier for me
I know you're able to make it like it was
Now when I compare
There's really no comparing
I just want it the way it used to be
Just the thought of living without your love
Makes me ask that you make it like it was
Make it like it was
The way it used to be
When I hungered for your love constantly
Make it like it was
It was easier for me
I know you're able to make it like it was
When I hungered for your love constantly
Make it like it was
It was easier for me
I know you're able to make it like it was, uh-oh was, mm-hmm
When I hungered for your love constantly
Make it like it was
It was easier for me
I know you're able to make it like it was
Ooh yeah, yeah, make it like it was
Make it like it was
