The Way We Were

Mem'ries light the corners of my mind<br/>Misty water-colored mem'ries of the way we were<br/><br/>Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind<br/>Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were.<br/><br/>Can it be that it was all so simple then<br/>Or has time rewritten every line<br/>If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we<br/><br/>Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet<br/>What's too painful to remember we simply choose to forget<br/>So it's the laughter we will remember<br/>Whenever we remember the way we were.<br/><br/>The way we were.
