The Way We Were

Memories light the corners of my mind

Misty, watercolored, 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

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?

Memories are too 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

Just the way we were

Memories
